Question 768929: the angles of a triangle are(x-40)•,(x-20)• and (1/2x-10)•. find x
Answer by Cromlix(4381)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(x - 40)+(x - 20) + (1/2x - 10) = 180
x - 40 + x - 20 + 1/2x - 10 = 180
2 1/2x = 180 + 70
2 1/2x = 250
x = 100 degrees.
Hope this helps.
