Question

What is the measure of angle x?

Enter your answer in the box.

? º

Answer 1

56 + 41 + x = 180
97 + x = 180
x = 180 - 97
x = 83 <==

Answer 2

Measure of ∠x is 83°.

Explanation:

Let, the angle opposite to 41° has measure y°.

Since, 'Vertical angles have equal measure'.

So, ∠y = 41°

Moreover, 'The sum for angles of a straight line is 180°'.

So, ∠x + ∠y + 56° = 180°

i.e. ∠x + 41° + 56° = 180°

i.e. ∠x = 180° - 97°

i.e. ∠x = 83°

Hence, measure of ∠x is 83°.
