Question

the diagram shows a triangle. what is the value of ( v )? ( v = square^circ ) submit

Explanation:

Step1: Sum triangle angles to 180°

$5v + (v+17) + 37 = 180$

Step2: Simplify the left side

$6v + 54 = 180$

Step3: Subtract 54 from both sides

$6v = 180 - 54$
$6v = 126$

Step4: Solve for v

$v = \frac{126}{6}$

Answer:

$v = 21$
