Answer:

x = 13

Explanation:

The tirangle ABC is given as equilateral. Every angle is therefore =. Not only that, each angle is 60 degrees.

If you need proof of that, remember that x + x + x = 180. Every triangle has 180 degrees.

if 3x = 180 then 1 x is 60

8x - 44 = 60 Add 44 to both sides.

8x = 60 + 44

8x = 104 Divide by 8

x = 104/8

x = 13
