Question

Find the value of x and the measure of the angle labeled 3x.

A. x= 14; angle measure is 30°
B. x = 10; angle measure is 42".
C. x = 14; angle measure is 42"
D. x = 10; angle measure is 30°

Answer 1

the answer is D, x= 10;angle measure is 30°

Answer 2

D

Explanation:

3x and 30 are vertically opposite angles and congruent, then

3x = 30 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 10 , thus

3x = 3 × 10 = 30°

x = 10 ; angle measure is 30° → D
