Can someone tell me how you do this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the sum of the angles for each triangle is 180 . right ?;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we should have : a+b+c=180 right ? and : a=2x-9 b=2x+4 c=x Now write it again and find an equation for this ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im sorry but im still really confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Look at this example : a=2 s=8 d=5 a+s+d = ? we say : a+s+d = ? 2+8+5= 15 ?=15 So we have : 180 = a + b + c 180 = 2x-9+ 2x+4 + x right ?;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now write 2x-9+2x+4+x simply ;) What do you have ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we have : 2x-9+2x+4+x=180 2x+4x=180+9-4 7x=185 x=185/7 x=25 Ok ?!;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Got it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think so.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a=3x+10 b=x+40 c=x ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i give up :( im to stupid for geometry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a+b+c=180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x-10+x+40+x=180?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i figured it out. Thank you for your help :)
