Answer:

These are co interior angles! Meaning that they will add up to 180!!

We can set it out like this:

3x + 67 + 59 = 180

first we can do 67 + 59 wwhich is 126

3x + 126 = 180

now we subtract the 126 from 180, in order to get the 3x alone .

3x = 54

now we divide 3 and 54

to get 18! x is 18!

Answer:

x = 18

Explanation:

Given angles are,

→ 3x + 67°

→ 59°

Now we have to,

→ Find the required value of x.

We know that,

Sum of all angles in a line is 180°.

Forming the equation,

→ (3x + 67°) + (59°) = 180°

Then the value of x will be,

→ (3x + 67°) + (59°) = 180°

→ 3x + 67° + 59° = 180°

→ 3x + 126° = 180°

→ 3x = 180° - 126°

→ 3x = 54

→ x = 54/3

→ [ x = 18 ]

Hence, the value of x is 18.
