Question

Find the value of x.

Answer 1

Answer: 26.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You can turn the second half of the shape into a right triangle, which has 180 degrees. With the right angle, you can set the two angles up to 90 degrees.

x + (3x-16) = 90

4x - 16 = 90

   + 16  + 16

4x = 106

/ 4     / 4

x = 26.5
