Write and solve an equation to find the value of x and a missing angle in the triangle below.
1 answer:
Answer:
x = 27°, ∠JLK = 55°
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram in the question above,
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite side
3x+13 = 39+(2x+1)
3x+13 = 40+2x
collect like terms and solve for x
3x-2x = 40-13
x = 27°.
∠JKL = 2x+1
Substitute the value of x
∠JKL = 2(27)+1
∠JKL = 54+1
∠JKL = 55°

No, they aren't
12² + 12²=16²
288=256
so they aren't a pythagorean triple
Length=3x
Width=x
3x+x+3x+x=128
8x=128
Divide both sides by 8
x=16
3(x)
3(16)=58
Width= 16 yards
Length= 58 yards
