To solve for the missing angle measures, we can start by using the Triangle Sum Theorem, which states that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.
Let's denote the missing angle measure as M. According to the Triangle Sum Theorem, we can write an equation:
M + J + L = 180
Given that J = 3x and L = 16x - 7, we substitute these values into the equation:
M + 3x + (16x - 7) = 180
Next, we combine like terms:
M + 3x + 16x - 7 = 180
M + 19x - 7 = 180
We can isolate M by moving the constant term to the other side of the equation:
M + 19x = 180 + 7
M + 19x = 187
To solve for x, we'll use inverse operations. First, subtract 19x from both sides:
M = 187 - 19x
Therefore, the equation that would help solve for the missing angle measure is M = 187 - 19x.
Now using your value of X from the previous question soft, to find the measure of each angle
To find the measure of each angle, we substitute the value of x into the equation we obtained: M = 187 - 19x.
Given the value of x, you would substitute it into the equation M = 187 - 19x.
Let's say the value of x is 5:
M = 187 - 19(5)
M = 187 - 95
M = 92
Now, we know that M = 92, so the measure of the missing angle is 92 degrees.
To find the measures of the other angles, we substitute the value of x into the expressions for K, J, and L:
K = 12x + 1 = 12(5) + 1 = 61
J = 3x = 3(5) = 15
L = 16x - 7 = 16(5) - 7 = 73
Therefore, the measure of angle K is 61 degrees, the measure of angle J is 15 degrees, and the measure of angle L is 73 degrees.
Use your value of X from the previous question, solve to find the measure of each angle

To find the measure of each angle, we substitute the value of x into the corresponding expressions for the angles:
K = 12x + 1
K = 12(5) + 1
K = 60 + 1
K = 61 degrees
J = 3x
J = 3(5)
J = 15 degrees
L = 16x - 7
L = 16(5) - 7
L = 80 - 7
L = 73 degrees
M = 180 - (K + J + L)
M = 180 - (61 + 15 + 73)
M = 180 - 149
M = 31 degrees
Therefore, the measure of angle K is 61 degrees, the measure of angle J is 15 degrees, the measure of angle L is 73 degrees, and the measure of angle M is 31 degrees.
