Answer:

x = 3 is the answer.

Explanation:

We have given a triangle.

We have to find the value of x in the triangle.

As we know that:

Exterior angle =sum of opposite interior angles

In the figure, the Exterior angle = 45x

And the sum of opposite interior angles = (25x)(57+x)

45x = (25x)+(57+x)

45x = 25x+57+x

45x-25x-x = 57

45x-26x = 57

19x = 57

x= 57/19

x = 3 is the answer.

Answer:


x=3

Explanation:

By the exterior angle theorem,


(45x)\degree=(57+x)\degree+(26x)\degree

Group like terms and solve for x.


45x-26x-x=57


19x=57

Divide both sides by 19;


x=3
