YW bisects angle XYZ. m of angle XYW = (2x + 7)degrees and m of angle XYZ = (6x - 8)degrees. Find the value of 'x'.

3 answers

Since the angle is bisected,

2(2x+7) = 6x-8
4x + 14 = 6x - 8
2x = 22
x = 11

m<XYZ = 58
m<XYW = 29
Triangle xyz has angles measure in the ratio 3:4:5 what is the measure of the largest angle?
you did your math wrong
-2x=6
x=-3
