To find the value of x, we need to use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180°.
So, we can set up the equation as follows:
x + (x + 14) + 82 = 180
Simplifying the equation:
2x + 14 + 82 = 180
2x + 96 = 180
Subtracting 96 from both sides:
2x = 84
Dividing by 2:
x = 42
Therefore, the value of x is 42°.
A triangle has angles measures of x, x + 14°
, and 82°
. Find the value of x.
