Question

find x.

x is an interior angle. the sum of the measures of t

reset

(x + 59^{\circ} + 72^{\circ} = 180^{\circ})

(x = \\)

Explanation:

Set up the equation

$$ x + 59^\circ + 72^\circ = 180^\circ $$

Simplify the sum of the known angles

$$ 59^\circ + 72^\circ = 131^\circ $$

Solve for x

$$ x = 180^\circ - 131^\circ = 49^\circ $$

Answer:

Find x.

\(x\) is an interior angle. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is \(180^\circ\).

$$x + 59^\circ + 72^\circ = 180^\circ$$

\(x =\) <blank>49</blank>\(^\circ\)
