Question

How do you solve an equation that looks like this?

Answer 1

Explanation:

5x - 8° + 43° = 90° (right Angle)

5x + 35° = 90°

5x = 90° - 35°

5x = 55°

x = 55°/5

x = 11°

5x - 8 = 5 × 11 - 8 = 47°

The first angle is 47° and second one is 43°.

Answer 2

x = 11

Explanation:

5x - 8 + 43 = 90

5x = 55

x = 11
