Step-by-step solution

Since this is an equilateral triangle, all angles are also equal.

As the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, each angle is equal to 60 degrees. (180:3=60)

From this, we can conclude that: 60=8x 60=8x

Let's divide both sides by 8:

608=8x8 \frac{60}{8}=\frac{8x}{8}

7.5=x 7.5=x
