Question

9x - 5
−5+ 6x
49°
56°
O 76°
A
O 50⁰
55°

Answer 1

∠ A = 76°

Explanation:

the sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

sum the 3 angles and equate to 180

9x - 5 - 5 + 6x + 55 = 180

15x + 45 = 180 ( subtract 45 from both sides )

15x = 135 ( divide both sides by 15 )

x = 9

Then

∠ A = 9x - 5 = 9(9) - 5 = 81 - 5 = 76°
