The angle sum of a triangle is 180 degrees
So add all the angles inside and equate it to 180: 5x+2x+3x= 180
10x=180
x= 18

Because you’re finding angle L, which is 3x, and we find what the numerical value of x is
Angle L = 3x18 = 54.
Hope this helps!

Answer:Angle L = 54 degrees

Explanation:

The given triangle has unequal sides and unequal angles. This means that it is a scalene triangle. The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. This means that

Angle L + angle K + angle J = 180 degrees. Therefore

5x + 2x + 3x = 180 degrees

10x = 180

Dividing the left hand side of the equation and the right hand side of the equation by 10, it becomes

10x/10 = 180/10

x = 18

Angle L = 3x = 3 × 18 = 54 degrees.
