Question

1. the angle measures of a triangle are as follows: angle a: (x - 5) degrees angle b: (3x + 3) degrees angle c: (4x) degrees write an expression that represents the sum of the angle measures. a.13x + 2 b.8x - 2 c.13x - 8 d.13x - 2

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the angle measures

Angle A: $(x - 5)$ degrees, Angle B: $(3x + 3)$ degrees, Angle C: $(4x)$ degrees.

Step2: Set up the sum expression

To find the sum of the angle measures, we add them together: $(x - 5) + (3x + 3) + 4x$.

Step3: Combine like terms

First, combine the $x$ terms: $x + 3x + 4x = 8x$.
Then, combine the constant terms: $-5 + 3 = -2$.
So the sum is $8x - 2$.

Answer:

b. $8x - 2$
