In angle PQR, angle P = (4x – 14)º, angle Q = (5x + 6)", and angle R= (x - 2)°. Find
angle R.

we have: ∠P + ∠Q + ∠R = 180°

<=> (4x – 14)º + (5x + 6)° + (x - 2)° = 180°

<=> 4x – 14 + 5x + 6 + x - 2 = 180°

<=> 10x - 10 = 180°

<=> 10x = 190

<=> x = 19°

So: ∠R = (x - 2)° = (19 - 2)° = 17°

ok done. Thank to me :>
