in the adjoining figure the value if x is
Answers
Angle x is equal to 122°
Step-by-step explanation:
=> angle A = 64°
=> (Triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle as AB is equal to AC , therefore Angle B is equal to Angle C ).
=> Angle ( A+ B + C ) = 180° { sum of all interior angles
is equal to 180° }
=> A + 2C = 180°
=> 64° + 2C = 180°
=> 2C = 180°- 64°
=> 2C = 116°
=> C = 116/2
=> C = 58°
Therefore,
Angle B = Angle C = 58°
Now, as we know that Exterior angle is equal to sum of two opposite interior angles.
Therefore,
Angle x = Angle A + Angle C
= 64 + 58
= 122°
Angle x is equal to 122°
Also , another method is
==>>
=> Angle x + Angle B = 180° ( linear pair)
=> Angle x + 58° = 180°
=> Angle x = 180 - 58
=> Angle x = 122°
