Solve for x

Help me please

x = 42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle inscribed inside of a circle using the diameter of the circle as it's hypotenuse is a right triangle ( a 90 degree triangle ) where the angle opposite of the hypotenuse is the 90 degree angle ( angle C )

Hence angle C = 90

If angle C = 2x + 5

Then 2x + 5 = 90

Notice that we just created an equation that we can use to solve for x

We now solve for x algebraically

2x + 5 = 90

Step 1 subtract 5 from both sides

2x + 5 - 5 = 90 - 5

Outcome: 2x = 85

Step 2 divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 85/2

Outcome: x = 42.5

O= 180

90=2x+5

85=2x

x=42.5
