Question

If measure of angle P = (19x -5) degrees and x=4 find the measure of P.

Answer 1

Solution:

Given:

Angle P is measured in degrees.

$P=19x-5$

where x = 4

Substituting the value of x in the equation,

$\begin{gathered} P=19x-5 \\ P=19(4)-5 \\ P=76-5 \\ P=71^0 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the measure of angle P is 71 degrees.
