a. The equation that would help solve for the missing angle measures can be written as:
x + x + 120 = 180
This equation is derived from the Triangle Sum Theorem, which states that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.
b. Now, let's solve the equation to find the value of x:
2x + 120 = 180
Subtract 120 from both sides of the equation:
2x = 180 - 120
2x = 60
Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
x = 60/2
x = 30
Therefore, the value of x is 30.
