Answer:
x = 29
Step-by-step explanation:
The three angles add to 90 degrees
x+3 + x-1 + x+1 = 90
Combine like terms
3x +3 = 90
Subtract 3 from each side
3x+3-3 = 90-3
3x = 87
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 87-3
The 3 angles sum to 90° , that is
x + 3 + x - 1 + x + 1 = 90
3x + 3 = 90 (subtract 3 from both sides )
3x = 87 ( divide both sides by 3 )
