Equilateral Triangle: Solve for X When One Angle is X+5

Since in an equilateral triangle all sides are equal and all angles are equal. It is also known that in a triangle the sum of angles is 180°, we can calculate X in the following way:

$X+5+X+5+X+5=180$

$3X+15=180$

$3X=180-15$

$3X=165$

Let's divide both sides by 3:

$\frac{3X}{3}=\frac{165}{3}$

$X=55$
