Question

Enzo drew Triangle K L N. In Enzo’s triangle, Measure of angle K is represented as x degrees. The measure of Angle L is 5 times Measure of angle K. The measure of Angle N is 16 degrees less than 8 times Measure of angle K. Which statements must be true about the angle measures of Enzo’s triangle?

Answer 1

A, B, and E

Explanation:

Angle K = x (A)

Angle L = 5x (B)

Angles K, L, & N = 180 (E)

Answer 2

Angle k = 14°,L = 70° and N = 96°

Explanation:

According to the question,Enzo drew Triangle K L N. In Enzo’s triangle, Measure of angle K is represented as x degrees. The measure of Angle L is 5 times Measure of angle K. The measure of Angle N is 16 degrees less than 8 times Measure of angle K.

From here,we know that angles in a triangle sum up to 180°

If angle k = x

Angle L = 5x

And angle N = 8x - 16

Sum of a all three is equal to 180°

(8x - 16) + x + 5x = 180

14x -16 = 180

X = 196/14

X= 14.

Therefore,angles k = 14°, L = 70° and N= 96°

Let's now assume that the question was to find the angles k,l and n which is already written above and to pick the correct statement relating to the question.

My statement here is( since we weren't given the complete question) that the triangle is a scalene triangle
