Question

ASAP. Triangle ABC has angle measures as shown. complete sentences

Answer 1

In a triangle, the three angles ALWAYS add up to 180°

x + (6x + 10) + (x + 2) = 180

8x + 12 = 180

8x = 168

x = 21

To calculate the measure of each angle, substitute x in:

Angle A: 21

Angle B: 6(21)+10

Angle C: 21 + 2

Do the angles add up to 180 degrees? Just add the answer for A B and C and see if the sum is 180. It should be 180, if it isn't something is wrong with the calculation.
