Question

I’ve been stressing over this problem can anyone help how my answer would be 1

Answer 1

Answer:

x=156 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

There is an acute angle that is 29 degrees and an obtuse angle that is (x-5) degrees.  We also 180, which is half of a circle. ( whole circle would be 360 degrees).

Our equation is 180 = (x-5)+29

180 = (x-5)+29

-29           -29

151 = x-5

+5     +5

156 = x

I know I didn't explain this well, but I hope at leat you understand a little bit.

Answer 2

Answer:

29° + (x - 5)° = 180°

29 + x - 5 = 180

29 - 5 + x = 180

24 + x = 180

24 - 24 + x = 180 - 24

x = 156

Step-by-step explanation:

A straight line is 180°.

Set all angles (29° and (x - 5)°) equal to 180°.

Then solve for x.
