OpenStudy (anonymous):

sry but sarcasm comes out of my mouth like stupidity comes out of yours

OpenStudy (anonymous):

LOL your mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sry I work as an fbi interrogator so I have to be mean but ok lets see how I can help

OpenStudy (amistre64):

do you have a picture by chance?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah im gonna need a bit of an example to help you out

OpenStudy (amistre64):

im assuming we solve for x as the sum of the angles is 180, the determine zxw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yeah! sorry i 4got about the picture

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its okay shelby

OpenStudy (amistre64):

then yeah, sum of the angles of a triangle are 180, add up the angles to solve for "x" for starters

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5x+11=6x-10=180?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do i do with the 91?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

(5x+11) + (6x-10) + (91) = 180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay! thanks

OpenStudy (amistre64):

once x is known 6x-10 is the same measure as the one they asked for

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im sorry.. i forgot how to solve after i got 11x+21+91=180.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

subtract and divide ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i add 21 on both sides of 91 and 21

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay

OpenStudy (amistre64):

seeing how 21 - 21 = 0 ... id start with subtracting 21 from both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im lost lol... i subtracted 21 on both sides of 20 and 91. and i got 70..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then i divided 11 on both sides which gave me 6.36

OpenStudy (amistre64):

11x + (11-10+91) = 180 11x + 92 = 180 -92 -92 ---------------- 11x = 88 /11 /11 x = 8

OpenStudy (amistre64):

6x - 10 6(8) - 10 48 - 10 = 38

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks!!!
