Question

Find x.

  1. 30°
  2. 60°
  3. 90°
  4. 180°

hintHint:

We are given a right-angled triangle. We are given one of its angle . It is 30°. We are asked to find the value of the another angle. We will do it by using properties of a triangle.

The correct answer is: 60°


    Let the given triangle be ABC.
    ∠ABC =90°
    ∠ACB = 30°
    Now, we know that the sum of angles of a triangle is 180.
    So, we can write.
    ∠ACB + ∠ABC + ∠CAB = 180°
    30° + 90° + x = 180°
    x = 180°– 120°
    x = 60°
    ∠CAB = 60°
    The angles are 30°-60°-90°.
    Therefore, the value of x is 60°.

    For such questions, we should know the properties of triangles.
