Question

Find the value of x in the triangle... Then classify the triangle as acute, right or obtuse

34°, acute
134°, obtuse
44°, right
54°, acute

Answer 1

x = 44

right

Explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle add to 180

90+ 46+x = 180

Combine like terms

136+x = 180

Subtract 136 from each side

136+x-136=180-136

x =44

Since we have a 90 degree angle it is a right triangle
