Question 942250: I have a question with angles. One side is a right triangle whereas the other has a line in between making two angles on the other side. One is labeled 5x and the other is 4x. My question is to find x. I have absolutely no idea on how to work it out. I tried making the 5 & 4x multiply into equaling 90. But failed. Any ideas?
