Question

How do I solve for X?

Answer 1

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, note that:

Vertically opposite angles are equal.

Therefore,

(2x + 20)° = 60°

Removing bracket.

2x + 20 = 60

collecting like term.

2x = 60 - 20

2x = 40

dividing bothsides by 2

2x/2 = 40/2

x = 20

How do I solve for X?

$\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{B. This problem has been solved!}}$

Angles $\bf{60^\circ}$ and $\bf{2x+20}$ are vertical angles. They are congruent, or equal.

Thus,

$\bf{2x+20=60}$ | subtract 20

$\bf{2x=40}$ | divide the equation by 2

$\bf{x=20}$

$\bf{Result:}$

          $\bf{=x=20}$
