the struggle is real huh? josh do you need anymore help or you good
Tranquility:
All the interior angles add up to 720 for a pentagon. That means:
(x-60) + (x-40) + (x-20) + 130 + 120 + 110 = 720
If you solve for x, you get x = 160
Angle A is equal to x - 60 = 160 - 60 = 100
The correct answer should be 100 degrees.
