In the given figure, find x.
Answers
Answer:
the value of x is 25
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x + 3x + x) + (15 + 10 + 5 )= 180
6x + 30 = 180
6x = 180-30
6x = 150
x = 150/6
x = 25
(2x +15) = 50 +15 = 65
(3x + 5) = 75 + 5 = 80
(x + 10) = 25 + 10 = 35
if you add all of them you will get 180
65+80+35 =180
Given
- Triangle
- ∠A = (x + 10)°
- ∠B = (3x + 5)°
- ∠C = (2x + 15)°

Solution
We know that the sum of interior angles in any triangle always sums upto 180°
So our equation becomes like this ⇒ (2x + 15) + (x + 10) + (3x + 5) = 180
Let's solve the following equation step-by-step.
(2x + 15) + (x + 10) + (3x + 5) = 180
Step 1: Simplify the equation.
⇒ (2x + 15) + (x + 10) + (3x + 5) = 180
⇒ 2x + 15 + x + 10 + 3x + 5 = 180
Step 2: Combine Like Terms.
⇒ 2x + 15 + x + 10 + 3x + 5 = 180
⇒ (2x + x + 3x) + (15 + 10 + 5) = 180
⇒ 6x + 30 = 180
Step 3: Subtract 30 from both sides of the equation.
⇒ 6x + 30 - 30 = 180 - 30
⇒ 6x = 150
Step 4: Divide 6 from both sides of the equation.
⇒ 6x ÷ 6 = 150 ÷ 6
⇒ x = 25
∴ x = 25
∠A = (x + 10)° = (25 + 10)° = 35°
∠B = (3x + 5)° = (3 × 25 + 5)° = 75 + 5 = 80°
∠C = (2x + 15)° = (2 × 25 + 15)° = 50 + 15 = 65°
∴ ∠A = 35°
∴ ∠B = 80°
∴ ∠C = 65°
