Answer:

52

Explanation:

I take it that x is somewhere near the end of the diagonal line, so you want to know the value of 3x + 1???

We know that (3x + 1) + (2x + 4) = 90 degrees. That's because AEF = 90 degrees.

So begin by removing the brackets.

3x + 1 + 2x + 4 = 90 Combine the like terms.

5x + 5 =90 Subtract 5 from both sides.

5x + 5 - 5 = 90 - 5 Combine

5x = 85 Divide by 5

x = 17

3x + 1 = 3*17 + 1 = 51 + 1 = 52
