To find x, we can set up an equation based on the sum of the angles in a triangle, which is always 180°.
The equation would be: 75° + 41° + (3× + 19)° = 180°
Combine like terms on the left side: 116° + 3× + 19 = 180°
Subtract 116 from both sides: 3× + 19 = 180° - 116°
Simplify: 3× + 19 = 64°
Subtract 19 from both sides: 3× = 64° - 19°
Simplify: 3× = 45°
Divide both sides by 3: x = 45° / 3
Simplify: x = 15°
Therefore, x is equal to 15°.
A triangle has angle measures of 75°, 41°, and (3×+19)°. Solve for x.
