Math Problem Statement

Find the value of X

Find the value of x

Solution

To find the value of xx, we need to use the information provided in the diagram.

  1. The given angles are (14x25)(14x - 25)^\circ and 5151^\circ.
  2. These two angles form a straight line, meaning they are supplementary. The sum of supplementary angles is 180180^\circ.

So, the equation will be: (14x25)+51=180(14x - 25) + 51 = 180

Now, let's solve for xx.

  1. Combine like terms: 14x25+51=18014x - 25 + 51 = 180 14x+26=18014x + 26 = 180

  2. Subtract 26 from both sides: 14x=15414x = 154

  3. Divide both sides by 14: x=15414=11x = \frac{154}{14} = 11

Thus, the value of xx is 1111.
