angle 1 and angle 2 add to 90 degrees, so, (x+18)+(3x) = 90 solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That equals 18

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

x = 18 is correct

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

now compute x+18 and 3x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now what?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

plug x = 18 into x+18 and 3x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

90??

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what is x+18 equal to when x = 18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

36

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what is 3x equal to when x = 18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

54

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so angle 1 is 36 degrees angle 2 is 54 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
