Math Problem Statement

Find the value of X

Solution

To solve for the value of XX in this diagram, let's analyze the given information.

Step 1: Understanding the Diagram

  • The diagram appears to depict a quadrilateral with some angles labeled:
    • One angle is labeled 9595^\circ.
    • Another angle is labeled XX^\circ.
    • The quadrilateral has an additional angle that is 9090^\circ (indicated by the square marking).

Step 2: Applying the Sum of Interior Angles in a Quadrilateral

  • The sum of the interior angles of any quadrilateral is always 360360^\circ.

Step 3: Setting Up the Equation

  • Denote the four angles of the quadrilateral as:

    1. XX^\circ (the angle we need to find)
    2. 9595^\circ (given)
    3. 9090^\circ (given)
    4. The fourth angle, let's call it θ\theta, which is also marked on the diagram.
  • The equation for the sum of the angles is: X+95+90+θ=360X + 95^\circ + 90^\circ + \theta = 360^\circ

Step 4: Solving for XX

  • The fourth angle θ\theta is given as 105105^\circ (based on what seems to be visible from the diagram).

  • Substitute the known angles into the equation: X+95+90+105=360X + 95^\circ + 90^\circ + 105^\circ = 360^\circ

  • Combine the known angles: X+290=360X + 290^\circ = 360^\circ

  • Subtract 290290^\circ from both sides: X=70X = 70^\circ

Final Answer

  • The value of XX is 7070^\circ.

Would you like further explanation or have any additional questions? Here are some related questions to consider:

  1. What are the steps to find an unknown angle in any polygon?
  2. How does the sum of interior angles vary with different polygons?
  3. What is the relationship between supplementary angles and quadrilaterals?
  4. How does the right angle (90°) influence the calculation in this problem?
  5. Can this method be applied to irregular quadrilaterals, and how?

Tip: When solving problems involving polygons, remember that the sum of the interior angles depends on the number of sides, and this can often simplify calculations!
