Question

Find the value of X in the triangle.

Please explain. Thanks.

Answer 1

29°

triangles can only have 180°

This is a right triangle, so one angle is 90°, leaving us with 90° left

90°-61°= 29°

Answer 2

X=29
You have a right angle, they're always 90 degrees, plus 61 degrees = 151, next you subtract 151 from 180 = 29 degrees.
