Question

If angle ABE is a right angle,
and the measure of angle ABE
= 3x + 6, find x.

Answer 1

If angle ABE is a right angle, it means it measures 90 degrees. According to the given information, the measure of angle ABE is 3x + 6. Setting this equal to 90 degrees gives us the equation:

3x + 6 = 90

Now we can solve for x:

3x = 90 - 6

3x = 84

x = 84 / 3

x = 28

So, the value of x is 28.
