Question

The measures of a triangle are shown in the figure below solve for X

Answer 1

Recall that the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees, therefore we can set the following equation:

`6x-16+6x+19+57=180.`

Adding like terms we get:

`12x+60=180.`

Subtracting 60 from the above equation we get:

`12x=120.`

Finally, dividing by 12 we get:

`x=10.`

Answer: x=10.
