write an equation to find x, then solve for angle measure A. 25 points.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
23). By applying triangle sum theorem in the given triangle,
(x + 83)° + (x + 48)° + 65° = 180°
2x + 196 = 180
2x = -16
x = -8
Measure of angle A = x + 48
= -8 + 48
= 40°
Therefore, Option A is the answer.
24). By triangle sum theorem,
(3x + 14)° + 90° + (4 + 3x)° = 180°
6x + 108 = 180
6x = 72
x = 12
Measure of angle A = (4 + 3x)
= 4 + 3(12)
= 40°
Therefore, Option A is the answer.
