Question

What is the value of k?​

Answer 1

k = 10

Explanation:

The 3rd angle that's not defined in the equation is supplementary to 115, so the angle is 180-115 = 65.

We can solve for the equation 65+(4k+5)+(6k+10)=180 -> 65+4k+5+6k+10=180 -> 10k+80 = 180 -> 10k = 100 -> k = 10.

To double-check(optional), we can plug k back into the equation, so 65 + 4*10 + 5 + 6*10 + 10 = 180 -> 100 + 65 + 5 + 10 = 180 -> 180 = 180, so we can confirm that k = 10.

Answer 2

(4k+5)+ (6k+10) = 115

Exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles

10k=15=115

10k= 100

k = 100/10

k = 10
