Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Well we know the right angle is 90 so...

And we also know that all the angle of a triangle add up to 180°.

Knowing this you can subtract 40° and 90°, this gives you 50°...

Then you can substitute 20° for x and then it will be 2(20°)+10°

Simplify and get 40°+10°

This equals 50° degrees

You then add that all up and you get 180°, this mean the answer is correct!

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

KL + KJ = 17

2 + 3x + 5x - 1 = 17 add like terms

8x + 1 = 17 subtract 1 from both sides

8x = 16 divide both sides by 8

x = 2

KL = 5x - 1 replace x with 2

5*2 - 1 = 9
