Answer 1

Answer 2

you need the angle sum of a hexagon which can be found using

\[Sum = (n - 2) \times 180\]

where n = the number of sides.

In your question n = 6

you need to add the angles next

(x + 5) + (x + 5) + x +x + 135 + 135

so

4x + 280 = angle sum

just solve for x

Answer 3

yea, campbell's got the approach i would use

Answer 4

Looks like you've got help enough... ;)

Answer 5

you would sove x by dividing 4 into 280 right?

Answer 6

what did you get as the angle sum.?

Answer 7

the angle sum was 720.... :p

Answer 8

ok so you have the equation

4x + 280 = 720

subtract 280 from both sides

then divide by 4

Answer 9

4x=440
x=110

Answer 10

thats correct...

Answer 11

geeezz thank you!!! all you people need to become teachers you explain it wayyyy better!
