Question

Find the value of x. (picture)

Answer 1

x = 23

Explanation:

Remember, angles in a triangle add up to equal 180

That being said we can create an equation to solve for x

180 = 110 + 35 + x + 12

now we solve for x

step 1: combine like terms

110 + 35 + 12 = 157

now we have 180 = 157 + x

step 2 subtract 157 from each side

180 - 157 = 23

157 - 157 cancels out

we're left with x = 23
