Answer:
110 - 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°
Sum the 3 angles and equate to 180
x + 50 + 5x - 40 + 110 - 2x = 180, that is
4x + 120 = 180 ( subtract 120 from both sides )
4x = 60 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 15
Thus
x + 50 = 15 + 50 = 65°
5x - 40 = 5(15) - 40 = 75 - 40 = 35°
110 - 2x = 110 - 2(15) = 110 - 30 = 80°
The largest angle is (110 - 2x)° = 80°
