If m < A = 4x + 12 and x = 15, is < A acute, obtuse, or right? Justify your answer.

The angle is an acute angle

An acute angle is an angle that is less than 90 degrees

An obtuse angle is an angle that is greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees

In order to determine which type of angle it is, solve for angle A

4x + 12

4(15) + 12

60 + 12 = 72

The angle is acute because it is less than 90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A = 4x + 12 = 4(15) + 12 = 72°.

Acute is for angles that are less than 90°.

Obtuse is for angles that are between 90° and 180°, not inclusive.

Right is for angles that are 90°

Hence the answer is acute.

answer: x=60
