Answer: Angle A is 55 degrees.

Explanation:

The sum of a triangle's angles must be 180 degrees.

That means: 79 + (6x+4) +(6x+13) = 180

Add the like terms to get: 12x + 96 = 180

Subtract 96 from both sides: 12x = 84

Divide both sides by 12: x = 7

Now that we know x = 7, we can substitute that into 6x + 13 to find Angle A.

Angle A = 6(7) + 13 = 42 + 13 = 55 degrees
