In the figure below, angle y and angle x form vertical angles. Angle y forms a straight line with the 80° angle and the 60° angle.

Write and solve an equation to determine the measure of angle x. (5 points)

Respuesta :

Applying the sum of angles on a straight line, we have:

Equation = x + 80 + 60 = 180

x = 40°.

What is the Sum of Angles on a Straight Line?

A straight line angle equals 180 degrees. Therefore, the sum of all the angles on a straight line = 180 degrees.

Thus, the equation to solve for x would be:

x + 80 + 60 = 180

Solve for x

x + 140 = 180

x = 180 - 140

x = 40°
