Question

Transversals and Triangle angles, solve for x

Answer 1

Apply angle sum property

`\\ \rm\hookrightarrow x+31+70+90=180`

`\\ \rm\hookrightarrow x+101=90`

`\\ \rm\hookrightarrow x=90-101`

`\\ \rm\hookrightarrow x=-11`

Answer 2

x = -11°

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle given is right angle triangle which has 90°

The total interior angle of a triangle is 180°

Solve:

x + 31° + 90° + 70° = 180°

x + 191° = 180°

x = 180° - 191°

x = -11°

Therefore, the value of x is - 11 degrees.
