what do you need to know how to do
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the value of x @roberman228
OpenStudy (anonymous):
there is a picture attached above @roberman228
OpenStudy (zehanz):
It is an equilateral triangle. What can you say about the two other angles of the triangle?

x=45
OpenStudy (zehanz):
No, could you answer my question, please?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that they are equal, so x equals 45?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
zehan mention me in your ? and i'll come to it

wait no, cause x is equall to the opposite inner angles? so x = 80?
OpenStudy (zehanz):
Both angles in the triangle are equal. Sum of all angles in a triangle is how many degrees?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
exactly, x=80
OpenStudy (anonymous):
180. @ZeHanz
OpenStudy (zehanz):
@Foreverisabell: so what is left for the two equal angles?

Im still confused.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
all the angles have to equal 180 inside no?
OpenStudy (zehanz):
Sum of angles is 180. One angle is 40. Sum of other two angles is 140.
The other two angles are equal, so 70 degrees each.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh alright thank you.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So that means x = 70 + 40?

Sure!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I attached the picture.

I can see it ;)
If P is a centroid, then P divides QT into two pieces, QP and PT, with
QP:PT =2:1
Now you know the length of QP (=14), so what would be the length of PT?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
14 + 14? zoo. 28?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
*sooo
OpenStudy (zehanz):
No, QP:PT=2:1, so QP is double the length of PT, so PT would be 7.
So total 14+7=21
