A triangle has angles measures of x, x + 14°
, and 82°
. Find the value of x.(1 point)
To find the value of x, we know that the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180°. So we can set up the equation:
x + (x + 14) + 82 = 180
Combining like terms, we get:
2x + 96 = 180
Subtract 96 from both sides:
2x = 84
Divide by 2:
x = 42
Therefore, the value of x is 42.
