how do i find the value of x in a triangle when in one angle says 2x, another angle is 3x, and another is just x.
x + 2x + 3x = 180
6x = 180
x = 180/6
x = ?
set-up a formula
2x + 3x + x = 180
solve for x
To find the value of 'x' in a triangle with angles 2x, 3x, and x, we need to use the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.
Let's add up the given angles:
2x + 3x + x = 180
Now, simplify the equation:
6x = 180
To find the value of 'x', divide both sides of the equation by 6:
6x/6 = 180/6
x = 30
Therefore, the value of 'x' is 30 degrees.
