Answer:

62

Explanation:

180-116 makes us find out that angle C is 64, thus to find out the inner angles you gotta do 64+ (2x+4)+(3x-13)=180

You follow this operation, find out x and perform 3(25)-13, which ends up giving you 62

Answer:

62°

Explanation:

The sum of two interior angles in a triangle is equal to an exterior angle that is not sharing a common side

2x + 4 + 3x - 13 = 116° add like terms

5x - 9 = 116°

5x = 125° divide both sides by 5

x = 25 and angle A is 3x - 13 so 3×25 - 13 = 62°
