Question :
The angle measure of a triangle are shown in the diagram.
What is the value of x?
Answer :
Explanation :
Given :
- ∠A = 50°
- ∠B = (2x)°
- ∠C = (3x - 10)°
To Find :
Solution :
As, In a triangle measure of all three angles is always 180°.
![\sf : \implies \angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180\degree](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/5vleplfdo12g22unkcv453vowm2j9pp3gy.png)
![\sf : \implies 50\degree + (2x)\degree + (3x - 10)\degree = 180\degree](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/8e8xu2jdbgvszh71yin0rfxgaq5bqiahl9.png)
![\sf : \implies 50 + 2x + 3x - 10 = 180\degree](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/q8e6nw7zi40ru52wv8yg6lyleseszucxw5.png)
![\sf : \implies 40 + 5x = 180\degree](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/z93nad925j8qqfliaqogha9ur7z0k35tv7.png)
![\sf : \implies 5x = 180\degree - 40\degree](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/ewe4nkqo2k8ofdui9nd498novjzwqwg526.png)
![\sf : \implies 5x = 140\degree](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/8oqk4x945xxexg8z40bho7f0q71hhnx1iq.png)
![\sf : \implies x = \cancel{(140\degree)/(5)}](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/wxxsvhoykk8foi60ta9dipj942zkne1xyh.png)
![\sf : \implies x = 28\degree](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/qm6lk7lgiq9g3hh8et5tl1yl62gfi131rn.png)
![\large \underline{\boxed{\bf{x = 28\degree}}}](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/e21kayzx00ejgo3uf0m1jkkl8bsut93u51.png)
Hence, value of x is 28°.
