2 horizontal and parallel lines are intersected by 2 diagonal lines to form a triangle with exterior angles. The top angle of the triangle is (2 x + 10) degrees. The bottom right angle of the triangle is 79 degrees. The exterior angle to the bottom left angle is (6 x + 1) degrees. What is the value of x? x = 2.25 x = 11.25 x = 13 x = 22

11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

sketch a triangle and fill in the sides, add the sides and equate to 180, collect the like terms to get the value of x=11.25

Josephine Garza · Answer 2

11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+11=180-79

8x+11=101

8x=90

x=11.25
