Question:

In the diagram below of Δ ABC, side BC is extended to point D, m∠A = x , m∠B = 2x+15, and m∠ACD = 5x+5 , what is m∠B ?

Answer: 3) m∠B = 25º

Step-by-step explanation:

Since m∠C is supplementary to m∠ACD

m∠C = 180º - m∠ACD

m∠C = 180º -(5·x + 5)

m∠C = 180º -5 -5·x

m∠C = 175º - 5·x

The sum of the angles of a triangle = 180º

m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180º

x + 2·x + 15º + 175º - 5·x = 180º

3·x - 5·x +190º = 180º

-2·x = 180º - 190º

-2·x = -10º

x = -10º/-2 = 5º

Now we can substitute this value of x in m∠B

m∠B = 2x+15

m∠B = 2·x + 15º = 2·5º + 15º = 10º + 15º = 25º

Answer: 3) m∠B = 25º
