Question

The measures of the angles of a triangle are shown in the figure below. Solve for x.

Answer 1

180° - 33° - 90° = 57°

x = 57°

Answer 2

x=57°

Explanation:

the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle add up to 180°.

it is given that there is a 33°, and a right angle which is 90°.

to find x:

x=180°-(90°+33°)

x=180°-123°

x=57°
