Question

Find the value of X. The diagram is not to scale.

Answer 1

Is this an equilateral triangle?

Answer 2

Idk..

Answer 3

I'm going to assume that it is, because I don't see how we would answer it if it wasn't.

So, if all interior angles of a triangle equal 180, and an equilateral triangle has 3 equal angle measures, then what is that measure?

Answer 4

I don't know..

Answer 5

180/3=?

Answer 6

60

Answer 7

Yes, so that means for the angle on the left, we need to find a value of 'x' that will equal 60 when input into the equation.

Answer 8

I DON'T GET IT!!

Answer 9

(5x-30)=60

Could you solve that? ^

Answer 10

X = 18

Answer 11

Yes.

Answer 12

So, if the one angle equals 60, then the other value of x needs to equal 120 when input it into the equation

(5x)=120
