Question

In a figure there are two adjacent triangles, KJL and LJM. KJL = (3x + 11) degrees. LJM = (5x + 3) degrees. Angle KJH = 32 degrees. What is the value of X? What is the angle of KJM?

Answer 1

20.75 degrees

Explanation:

The sum of adjacent angles in a triangle is 180 degrees

(3x + 11) degrees+ (5x + 3) degrees = 180

3×+11+5x+3=180

8x+14=180

8x= 180-14=166

x = 166/8=20.75
