Question

In AVWX, XV
W X and mW
- 27°. Find m_X.

Answer 1

m<X =
`126^(o)`

Explanation:

From the given isosceles triangle, we have;

<W and <V as the base angles

So that,

m<W = m<V = 27 (base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal)

Thus,

m<X + m<V + m<W = 180 (sum of angles in a triangle)

m<X + 27 + 27 = 180

m<X + 54 = 180

m<X = 180 - 54

= 126

m<X =
`126^(o)`
