(i) \(x + 50° = 115°\) (Exterior angle theorem)
\(x = 115° - 50° = 65°\)
(ii) \(70° + x = 100°\) (Exterior angle theorem)
\(x = 100° - 70° = 30°\)
(iii) \(x + 90° = 125°\) (Exterior angle theorem)
\(x = 125° - 90° = 35°\)
(iv) \(x + 60° = 120°\) (Exterior angle theorem)
\(x = 120° - 60° = 60°\)
(v) \(x + 30° = 80°\) (Exterior angle theorem)
\(x = 80° - 30° = 50°\)
(vi) \(x + 35° = 75°\) (Exterior angle theorem)
\(x = 75º - 35º = 40°\)
Find the value of the unknown exterior angle x in the following diagrams:
Write equations for the following statements:
(i) The sum of numbers x and 4 is 9.
(ii) 2 subtracted from y is 8.
(iii) Ten times a is 70.
(iv) The number b divided by 5 gives 6.
(v) Three-fourth of t is 15.
(vi) Seven times m plus 7 gets you 77.
(vii) One-fourth of a number x minus 4 gives 4.
(viii) If you take away 6 from 6 times y, you get 60.
(ix) If you add 3 to one-third of z, you get 30
