Question

Find the value of x.

Answer 1

Do u know the total interior angle of a pentagon?>

Answer 2

Not really:/

Answer 3

Ok, so it's necessary that u know the total interior angle of the pentagon.

So the first step is to find it.
Use the formula
\[{180(n-2)}\]Where n is the number of sides.

Answer 4

So, u have 5 sided figure. so what will be the value of "n" be?

Answer 5

Erm, I have no idea and I don't wanna guess.

Answer 6

Seems like they also, don't want to do any math?????

Answer 7

More like don't understand it.

Answer 8

How many sides is your figure? that is your n value, sub it into the formula he gave you and that will tell you how many degrees your figure is made up of

Answer 9

Ohhh thanks!:)

Answer 10

So n is 5, correct?

Answer 11

yes

Answer 12

add up all of your interior angles and set it equal to that number and solve for x

Answer 13

So substituted 180(n-2) is 180(5-2) which is 180(3) then 540?

Answer 14

yes set it equal to 540

Answer 15

So what does the formula look like now and what's my next step?

Answer 16

all up all the given interior angles
here is a hint the little box represents a right angle and that is 90 degrees
90 + 112 + ..........finish=540 solve for x

Answer 17

Is it 90x or 112x?

Answer 18

really????

Answer 19

Name all of the angles (Hint: Look at the picture you posted)
Start with 90 degrees

Answer 20

Is it 67.5 or 68?

Answer 21

what equation did you use? I am still waiting for you to tell me all of the angles listed on your picture.

Answer 22

Angles are 148,112, 2x+10 and 2x right? I'm so bad at this.

Answer 23

but you forgot 90 degrees that is what the little box means

Answer 24

90 + 112 + 148+ 2x+10+2x=540
solve for x

Answer 25

Ah yes, 90! Forgot that!

Answer 26

ok solve for x

Answer 27

x=13.5 ish

Answer 28

Can you help me with one mor question?!

Answer 29

there is no ish in mathematics
90 + 112 + 148 + 2x+10+ 2x=540
360 + 4x=540
-360 -360
4x=180
divide both sides by 4
x=45

Answer 30

well post it, if I can help I will

Answer 31

Give the name that best describes the parallelogram and find the measures of the numbered angles.

Answer 32

Ahh, I added the formula wrong.

Answer 33

ok angles 1, 3 are the same value
angles 2, 4 are the same value
by the alternate interior angles
triangles equal up to 180 degrees
180-116=64 degrees

Answer 34

2 and 3 add up to 64 degrees

Answer 35

Triangle is an isoceles and those angles are equal
ie 2 and 3 are equal so what do you think the answer is

Answer 36

64

Answer 37

angle 2 and 3 are the same value
they both add up to 64

Answer 38

then 128

Answer 39

oh wait lol, 32

Answer 40

I was beginning to worry yes 32

Answer 41

Yay! Thank you so much!:)

Answer 42

Anytime :)
