Math Problem Statement
Solve for x. In the diagram, one angle is 30° and the other is 3x°.
Solution
To solve for in the image provided, we can use the property that the sum of angles on a straight line is 180°.
From the diagram:
- The given angle is .
- The other angle is , where is the variable we need to solve for.
Since these two angles are on a straight line, their sum must be equal to .
Thus, the equation becomes: Now, solve for :
So, .
Now, let me check the options. It seems that none of the answer choices are 50. Could you clarify or check if there was an issue with the question setup?
