You can put this solution on YOUR website!
angles KPL and JPL are adjacent and their sum is 180 degrees
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "2x+24 + 4x+36 = 180
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides of = by 2
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x+12 + 2x+18 = 90
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "3x+30 = 90
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 60
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = 20
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "****************************
\n" ); document.write( "angle JPL = 4(20) + 36 = 116
\n" ); document.write( "****************************
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "check answer
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "KPL + 116 = 180
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "KPL = 64
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "64 = 2(20) + 24
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "64 = 40 + 24
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "64 = 64
