Measure of Angle X

Introduction to measure of angle x:

The angle are formed between two rays or lines where it origins from the same point. There will be some gap in between these two rays which can be called as the angle of the particular shape. The angles can be measure at this point only. The unknown angle in geometry can be taken as x. Now we will see about the measure of angle x.

Explain about Measure of Angle X:

The unknown angle in a particular shape of figure can be assumed as x. Now we will see some of the examples related to this measuring of the angle x. For example in triangle, the measure angles x can be determined as by assuming one of its angle as x and to find the angle with the total measure of the angle.

Example Problems for Measure of Angle X:

Example 1:

Determine the measure of angle x in a triangle and the two angles can be given as 40 and 60?

Solution:

The measure of angle x can be calculated as follows,

The sum of the measure of three angles of a triangle is equal to 180 degrees.

x + 40 + 60 = 180

Just add the two given angles and given as,

x + 100 = 180

Thus, the angle x can be calculated as,

x = 180 – 100

x = 80.

The measure of angle x is 80 degrees.

Example 2:

Find the measure of angle x in the given parallelogram where the three angles of the parallelogram are given as 60, 80 and 120 degrees?

Solution:

The measure of angle x which means the unknown angle of x can be calculated as follows,

60 + 80 + 120 + x = 360

As we know that the sum of the angles in a parallelogram will be 360 degrees.

Now add the angles and keep x as the same

260 + x = 360

Now subtract 260 on both sides we get,

260 + x – 260 = 360 - 260

x = 100.

Thus, the measure of angle x determined as 100 degrees for the given parallelogram.
