Question

Find the measure of the missing angles to name the shortest and longest sides. (2x) x+15) 1. X= 2.

Answer 1

KINDLY CHECK EXPLANATION

Explanation:

The triangle Given is right angled :

Hence, the sum of the two angles = 90°

Hence, 2x + (x + 15) = 90

2x + x + 15 = 90

3x = 90 - 15

3x = 75

x = 75 / 3

x = 25

2x = 2 * 25 = 50

(x + 15) = 25 + 15 = 40

Hence, largest angle = angle Y

Largest side = side opposite largest angle = AD

smallest angle = (x + 15) = 40

Smallest side = side opposite smallest angle = AY
