Answer:

48

Explanation:

ABC is a right triangle so the masure of ∠A = 90°

The sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180 so we will write an equation accordingly to find the

missing angle:

90 + 2x + 14 + 4x - 26 = 180 add like terms

78 + 6x = 180 subtract 78 from both sides

6x = 102 divide both sides by 6

x = 17

Now replace x with 17 to calculate the measure of m∠B

2*17 + 14 = 48
