Answer:

x = 29

angle c = 93

Explanation:

Angles in a triangle add up to equal 180

That being said we create an equation to solve for x

180 = 3(x+2) + 52 + 35

Now we solve for x using basic algebra

step 1 distribute the 3 to ( x and 2 )

3 * x = 3x

3 * 2 = 6

now we have 180 = 3x + 6 + 52 + 35

step 2 combine like terms

6 + 52 + 35 =93

now we have 180 = 93 + 3x

step 3 subtract 93 from each side

93 - 93 cancels out

180 - 93 = 87

now we have 87 = 3x

step 4 divide each side by 3

3x / 3 = x

87 / 3 = 29

we're left with x = 29

Now we want to find the measure of angle C

To do so we plug in 29 for "x" in 3 ( x + 2)

3 ( 29 + 2 )

29 + 2 = 31

3(31) = 93

Hence angle c = 93

Answer:

solution given:

3(x+2)+35°+52°=180°[sum of interior angle of a traingle is 180°]

3(x+2)=180-87

x+2=93/3

x+2=31

x=31-2=29°

value of x=29°

again

<C=3(29°+2)=93°

the measure of angle C=93°
