Which is a possible value for x? 12 52 66 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is the last question I need help with. I've been on it for awhile, I think its 10? But I'm not sure.

OpenStudy (zepp):

Saying that (6x-14)=52 because they are inner angles is a trap

OpenStudy (zepp):

But we can try and say that angle C = 90 degrees

|dw:1338665907362:dw|

OpenStudy (zepp):

@dpalnc, is tan(90) possible D:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because 32 > 28 , then 52 > 6x - 14

OpenStudy (zepp):

@dpaInc, I mean :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no.. tan90 has no value...

OpenStudy (zepp):

Right. :|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question just asks for a possible value for x so choose 1 that satisfy: 52 > 6x - 14

OpenStudy (zepp):

That could work :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i think your x=10 is correct... :)

OpenStudy (zepp):

52 > 6x - 14 52 + 14 > 6x 66 > 6x 11 > x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm kind of confused now xD Am I right? Or is it 12?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it is x=10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

check: 52 > 6(12) - 14 is that true?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

^^^ @mich4563

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is not true: 52 > 58 so it is not x = 12 it is x = 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks! 10 was right.
