One obtuse angle and 2 acute angles

Classify the triangle by the best definition based on sides and angles. Then find the sum of the interior angles.

4. The sum of ANY triangles interior angles is 180°. Use this fact to solve for x below.

x + 75 + 54 = 180

x + 129 = 180

x = 51

2x + 3x + 55 = 180

5x + 55 = 180

x = 25

5x = 125

4x – 1 + 3x + 90 = 180

7x + 89 = 180

x = 13

7x = 91

A = 30 un2

A = ½(12)(5)

A = 30 un2

A = ½(12)(5)

A = 30 un2

A = ½(12)(5)
