Answer:

The measure of angle A is 30 degrees.

Explanation:

Since all triangles are equal to 180 degrees, you take set up an equation where u add 2x and 3x to get 5x and u add that to 130 and set it equal to 180

2x+3x+130=180 ( combine like terms)

5x=50 (subtract 130 from both sides to isolate our variable which is x)

x=10 (divide both sides by 5 to get rid completly isolate our variable)

Now we know x=10 you can plug that in as our x value so 3x becomes 3*10 which equals 30 which is your answer.

Answer:

so 2x+3x+130=180

so 5x+130=180

5x=50

so 2x =20

3x which is angle a is equal to 30 degree
