The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( x \) and then determine the angles of the triangle given as \( (x - 40^\circ), (x - 20^\circ), \) and \( \left(\frac{x}{2} - 10^\circ\right) \). ### Step 1: Set up the equation We know that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always \( 180^\circ \). Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ (x - 40^\circ) + (x - 20^\circ) + \left(\frac{x}{2} - 10^\circ\right) = 180^\circ \] ### Step 2: Combine like terms Now, let's combine the terms on the left side of the equation: \[ x - 40^\circ + x - 20^\circ + \frac{x}{2} - 10^\circ = 180^\circ \] This simplifies to: \[ 2x + \frac{x}{2} - 70^\circ = 180^\circ \] ### Step 3: Eliminate the constant Next, we can add \( 70^\circ \) to both sides of the equation: \[ 2x + \frac{x}{2} = 180^\circ + 70^\circ \] This simplifies to: \[ 2x + \frac{x}{2} = 250^\circ \] ### Step 4: Find a common denominator To combine \( 2x \) and \( \frac{x}{2} \), we convert \( 2x \) to have a common denominator of 2: \[ \frac{4x}{2} + \frac{x}{2} = 250^\circ \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{5x}{2} = 250^\circ \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( x \) Now, we can multiply both sides by 2 to eliminate the fraction: \[ 5x = 500^\circ \] Next, divide both sides by 5: \[ x = 100^\circ \] ### Step 6: Find the angles of the triangle Now that we have \( x \), we can find the angles of the triangle: 1. First angle: \[ x - 40^\circ = 100^\circ - 40^\circ = 60^\circ \] 2. Second angle: \[ x - 20^\circ = 100^\circ - 20^\circ = 80^\circ \] 3. Third angle: \[ \frac{x}{2} - 10^\circ = \frac{100^\circ}{2} - 10^\circ = 50^\circ - 10^\circ = 40^\circ \] ### Final Result Thus, the value of \( x \) is \( 100^\circ \) and the angles of the triangle are \( 60^\circ, 80^\circ, \) and \( 40^\circ \). ---
