Question

If angle 2 has a measurement of (x+4) and angle 3 has a measurement of 3x what does x equal?

Answer 1

x = 44 degrees.

Explanation:

Hi!

Since m<2 and m<3 equal 180 degrees (sum of flat line), we can form an equation

(x+4) + (3x) = 180

x + 4 + 3x = 180

4x + 4 = 180

4x = 176

Divide by 4 on both sides

x = 44 degrees
