3 angles of an octagon are x each.if the other angles are 20 more than each of the other 3 find x
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "If \"x\" is the interior angle, 180-x is the exterior angle.
\n" ); document.write( "If \"x+20\" is the interior angle, 160-x is the exterior angle.
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The sum of the exterior angles is 360.
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "3(180-x)+5(160-x) = 360
\n" ); document.write( "540-3x+800-5x = 360
\n" ); document.write( "-8x+1340 = 360
\n" ); document.write( "-8x = -980
\n" ); document.write( "x = 122.5 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "======================
