Math Problem Statement
Find the value of x
Solution
To find the value of , let’s analyze the diagram provided.
This is a problem involving angles around a point, and the sum of these angles should equal .
In the diagram, we have three given angles:
Setting up the equation, we can add these angles and set the sum equal to :
Now, combine like terms:
Subtract from both sides:
Now, divide by 4:
Answer:
The value of is .
