Question

I NEED THIS NOW!!

triangle abc has angle measures as shown (look at image).

(a) using the triangle sum theorem, write the equation and solve for x.

(b) what is the value of < b? show your work.

Answer 1

Answer:

a) x = 6°  b) m∠B = 50°

Explanation:

(a) total angle measure of a triangle is 180°

8x + 2 + 70° + 60° = 180°

8x + 132° = 180°

8x = 180° - 132°

8x = 48°

x = 6°

(b)

m∠B = 8x + 2

m∠B = 8(6) + 2°

m∠B = 48° + 2°

m∠B = 50°

Answer 2

Answer:

A. X is 6 and B. Angle is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

PART A

Triangle sum theorem explains that all angles in a triangle add up to 180

(8x + 2) + 70 + 60 = 180

8x= 180-70-60-2

8x= 48

X= 48/8 =6

PART B

Using the formula provided, replace the x with 6

So it'll be 8(6)+2 = 48+2 = 50
