Answers to Question 6: m∠1 = 92, m∠2 = 88
The sum of a linear pair's angles is 180°, so we will set up an equation to solve.
(x + 67) + (3x + 13) = 180
4x + 80 = 180
4x = 100
x = 25
-
(x + 67) ➜ (25 + 67) ➜ 92
(3x + 13) ➜ (3(25) + 13) ➜ 88
Answer to Question 7: m∠2 = 56
Vertical angles are congruent, or equal, so we can set up an equation to solve.
(5x + 16) = (4x + 24)
x = 8
-
(5x + 16) ➜ (5(8) + 16) ➜ 56
(4x + 24) ➜ (4(8) + 24) ➜ 56
