⑦
triangle with angles (3x + 1)°, 6x + 5)°, and a right angle
Let's solve the triangle angle problems using the Triangle Sum Theorem (the sum of angles in a triangle is \(180^\circ\)).
Problem 5:
We have a triangle with angles \(76^\circ\), \(27^\circ\), and \(x\).
Step 1: Recall the Triangle Sum Theorem
The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is \(180^\circ\). So, we can write the equation:
\[
76^\circ + 27^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
Step 2: Simplify the left - hand side
First, add \(76^\circ\) and \(27^\circ\):
\[
76 + 27=103
\]
So the equation becomes:
\[
103^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
Step 3: Solve for \(x\)
Subtract \(103^\circ\) from both sides of the equation:
\[
x=180^\circ - 103^\circ
\]
\[
x = 77^\circ
\]
Problem 6:
We have a triangle with one angle \(54^\circ\) and two equal angles \(x\) (since it's an isosceles triangle with two equal angles).
Step 1: Apply the Triangle Sum Theorem
The sum of the angles in a triangle is \(180^\circ\). So we can write the equation:
\[
x + x+54^\circ=180^\circ
\]
Step 2: Combine like terms
Combine the two \(x\) terms:
\[
2x + 54^\circ=180^\circ
\]
Step 3: Solve for \(x\)
Subtract \(54^\circ\) from both sides:
\[
2x=180^\circ - 54^\circ
\]
\[
2x = 126^\circ
\]
Then divide both sides by 2:
\[
x=\frac{126^\circ}{2}=63^\circ
\]
Problem 7:
Let the unknown angle be \(y\). We have two angles: \((3x + 1)^\circ\) and \(6x^\circ\) (assuming there is a typo and it's \(6x^\circ\) instead of \(6x0^\circ\)). Using the Triangle Sum Theorem:
\[
(3x + 1)^\circ+6x^\circ + y=180^\circ
\]
But since we don't know the value of \(x\), we assume that maybe it's a right - angled triangle (the small square indicates a right angle, \(90^\circ\)). Let's assume the right angle is \(90^\circ\), and the other two angles are \((3x + 1)^\circ\) and \(6x^\circ\). Then:
Step 1: Apply the Triangle Sum Theorem for right - angled triangle
\[
(3x + 1)^\circ+6x^\circ+90^\circ = 180^\circ
\]
Step 2: Combine like terms
\[
9x+1 + 90=180
\]
\[
9x+91 = 180
\]
Step 3: Solve for \(x\)
Subtract 91 from both sides:
\[
9x=180 - 91=89
\]
\[
x=\frac{89}{9}\approx9.89
\]
Then the two angles:
\(3x + 1=3\times\frac{89}{9}+1=\frac{89}{3}+1=\frac{92}{3}\approx30.67^\circ\)
\(6x = 6\times\frac{89}{9}=\frac{178}{3}\approx59.33^\circ\)
And the right angle is \(90^\circ\), and \(\frac{92}{3}+\frac{178}{3}+90=\frac{270}{3}+90 = 90 + 90=180^\circ\), which satisfies the Triangle Sum Theorem.
