Question

Find the measure of ZB.

Answer 1

The sum of the inside angles of a triangle, always sum up to 180 degrees. Using this information, we can create the following equation for this problem:

`(3x-2)\text{ +(6}x\text{+11)+(5}x\text{ +3) = 180}`

Adding up all terms with 'x' and adding the other together, we have the following equation:

`\begin{gathered} (3x+6x+5x)+(11+3-2)=180_{} \\ 14x+12=180 \\ 14x=180-12=168 \end{gathered}`

Solving this last equation for 'x', we have the following:

`\begin{gathered} 14x=168 \\ x=(168)/(14)=12 \end{gathered}`

Then, the final answer for the 'x' value is twelve!
