Question

Find the value of x A) 3 B) 14 C) 5 D) 2

Answer 1

Answer:

C) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of angle TSU is 75°. (180° - 105° because it is a flat angle)

The sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180° as well.

You can write an equation to solve for x.

12x + 9x + 75 = 180

Isolate x.

12x + 9x = 180 - 75

12x + 9x = 105

Add the 12 and the 9.

21x = 105

Find what x is.

x = 105 ÷ 21

x = 5
