Algebra.Com's Answer #207422 by stanbon(75887) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! A triangle has three angles with measurements A, B, and C such that \n" ); document.write( " A = x^2 + 49, B = x + 2, and C = x + 130. \n" ); document.write( "Assume all angles are measured in degrees. Find x. \n" ); document.write( "--------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Equation: \n" ); document.write( "A + B + C = 180 degrees \n" ); document.write( "(x^2+49) + (x+2) + (x+130) = 180 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "x^2 + 2x + 181 = 180 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0 \n" ); document.write( "(x+1)^2 = 0 \n" ); document.write( "x = -1 \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "A = x^2+49 = 50 degrees \n" ); document.write( "B = x+2 = 1 degree \n" ); document.write( "C = x + 130 = 129 degrees \n" ); document.write( "============================ \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "============================ \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "A. x = 0 B. x = 1 C. x = 180 D. x = −1 E.
