The measures of the angles of a triangle are shown in the figure below. Solve for x. (3x)° 48°

1 answer

To find the value of x, you need to use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

So, you can set up the equation:

3x + 48 + x = 180

Combine like terms:

4x + 48 = 180

Subtract 48 from both sides:

4x = 132

Divide by 4:

x = 33

Therefore, x = 33.
