Solve for x in the diagram below= 3x 80 2°

x=20

Explanation:

a flat angle is, in terms of geometry, the space between an intersection between two lines whose opening measures 180 degrees or 180º. Since the angle is 180º there is no difference between two lines or a line and we can say that the angles in a straight line always add up to 180º.

Step 1

define

according to the graph

3x+80+2x=flat angle=180°

3x+80+2x=180°

Step 2

solve for x

3x+80+2x=180°

5x+80=180

subtract 80 in each side

5x+80-80=180-80

5x=100

divide by 5

(5x)/5=100/5

x=20

Have a great day.
