In ΔHIJ, \text{m}\angle H = (x-1)^{\circ}m∠H=(x−1)

, \text{m}\angle I = (2x+5)^{\circ}m∠I=(2x+5)

, and \text{m}\angle J = (7x+6)^{\circ}m∠J=(7x+6)

. What is the value of x?x?

Respuesta :

The measure of angle L is 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, in a triangle, the sum of the angles equal 180

So in this case;

J + K + L = 180

So therefore;

8x + 6 + 2x + 2 + 4x + 4 = 180

8x + 2x + 4x + 6 + 2 + 4 = 180

14x + 12 = 180

14x = 180 -12

14x = 168

x = 168/14

x = 12

So to get the measure of angel L, we simply substitute the value x in the equation for L

From the question, L = 4x + 4

So therefore L = 4(12) + 4 = 48 + 4 = 52
