In order to find the measure of angle A we have the next equation. Remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°


(3x-6)+(8x+4)+(180-130)=180

Then we sum like terms


11x+48=180

Then we isolate the x


11x=180-48
11x=132
x=(132)/(11)


x=12

For angle A

angle A= 3x-6=3(12)-6=30°

angle A=30°
