Question

In the figure below, angle y and angle x form vertical angles. Angle y forms a straight line with the 60° angle and the 70° angle. A straight line is shown and is marked with three angles. The first angle measures 60 degrees. The second angle measures 60 degrees. The third angle is labeled y. The line between the 70 degree angle and angle y extends below the straight line. The angle formed is labeled angle x. Write and solve an equation to determine the measure of angle x.

Answer 1

The equation that solve for x is as follows;

70 + 60 + x = 180

How to find an angle?

The equation that can be used to find the measure of angle x can be found as follows:

60 + 70 + y = 180

Therefore,

130 + y = 180

subtract 130 from both sides

130 - 130 + y = 180 - 130

y = 50°

70 + 60 + x = 180

130 + x = 180

x = 180 - 130

x = 50°

x and y are  vertically opposite angles.
