Question

Please help. Find the value of x

Answer 1

x = 24

Explanation:

Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees.

a + 111 = 180

180 - 111 = a

a = 69

Angles in a quadrilateral add up to 360 degrees.

69 + 41 + 94 + c = 360

204 + c = 360

c = 360 - 204

c = 156

Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees.

x + 156 = 180

x = 180 - 156

x = 24

Answer 2

x =24

Explanation:

Call the angle in the lower right corner y

The outside angles add to 180 degrees for the large triangle

41+ 94+ y = 180

135 + y = 180

y = 180-136

y =45

The small triangle in the lower right also has angles that add to 180

y+ 111+x = 180

45+111+x = 180

156 + x = 180

x = 180-156

x =24
