Find the value of x
are you not paying attention in class
sum of angles in pentagon is always 540
I think its 42.5
42.500
we know the sum of the angles of a pentagon equal 540 the angle without any number by it has a measure of 90 degrees since it is a right angle set up an equation adding all the sides up to 540
148 + 112 = 260 540 - 260 = 280 (2x + 10) + (2x) = 280 Can you solve that?
like this: 2x+2x+10+148+90+112=540 now solve the equation and tell me what you get
or solve @camerondoherty 's equation it is the same thing
sorry I meant x=45
@BeSimple can you solve the equation or do you need help?
67.5
my bad i forgot the 90degrees
yes now solve and tell me what you get
42.5
Oh yea, me too Sorry, cx Change the equation to: (2x + 10) + (2x) = 190 cx
2x+10+2x=190 subtract 10, then combine x's then divide on both sides by the coeffcient of x
