Question

Work out the value of angle x

Answer 1

x = 56

Explanation:

As you can see two angles are congruent, as the two tally marks suggest so. Therefore not only does the left angle measure 62 but also the right angle does as well. Therefore, further indicating that we are dealing with an isosceles triangle in this scenario. So you would come up with the equation 62(2) + x = 180 because all the angles together add up to get you 180 degrees. So once you say 62 times 2 to get 124 you would subtract that by 180; giving you 56 degrees for x.

Answer 2

Its an Isosceles triangle. The two bases are equal

So

x= 180-(62+62)

x=56°.
