Find the measure of exterior angle A

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Find "x" first.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

using 49

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would i add all the angles and equal them to 360?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. then solve for x and then you can easily solve for angle A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay ill try . is it equal to 360 or would it be 540

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sum Of interior Angles + Exterior angles = 5(180) Write this expression in terms of x and solve for x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that made no sence

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What made no sense.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use 360

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i got x = 10 , now what do i do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the figure says angle A=6x-3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay i wasnt sure if that was it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 (180) + 6 x - 3 + 14 x + 6 + 3 x + 30 + 49 + 4 x + 8 = 5 (180) x=10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Notice that 5(180)- 3(180) = 360 So we are talking the same things and it does make sense.
