Question

Find the value of x. Then find the measure of each interior angle. Show work algebraically

Answer 1

Explanation:

W=180-144

W=36 degrees

The sum of angles in a triangle always sum to 180 degrees.

6x+1+7x+36=180

13x+37=180

13x=143

x=11

U=6x+1

U=6(11)+1=67 degrees

V=7x

V=7(11)=77 degrees so

x=11 degrees, U=67 degrees, V=77 degrees, and W=36 degrees.
