Answer:

∠A = 44°

Explanation:

84 + x + 59 + x + 51 = 180

2x = 180 - 84 - 59 - 51

x = -14/2

x = -7

∠A = x + 51

∠A = -7 + 51

∠A = 44°

Answer:

x = -7º

x+59 = 52º

x+51 = 44º

Explanation:

84 + (x+59) + (x+51) = 180º

180 - 84 = 96

x+59 + x+51 = 96

2x + 110 = 96

2x = -14

x = -7

proof:

-7+59 = 52º

-7+51 = 44º

the sum of angles in a triangle must be 180º so:

84 + 52 + 44 = 180
