The measures of the angles of ABC are given by the expressions in the table A (6X - 1) ° B 20° C (x + 14) ° what are the measures of angles A and C? Enter your answers in the boxes mA = mC =

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. This means that in triangle ABC,

Angle A + angle B + angle C = 180

Therefore,

6x - 1 + 20 + x + 14 = 180

6x + x + 20 + 14 - 1 = 180

7x + 33 = 180

Subtracting 33 from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

7x + 33 - 33 = 180 - 33

7x = 147

Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 7, it becomes

7x/7 = 147/7

x = 21

Therefore

Angle A = 6x - 1 = 6 * 21 - 1

Angle A = 125 degrees

Angle C = x + 14 = 21 + 14

Angle C = 35 degrees.
