Question

The measure of angle 1 is 3x + 10 and the measure of angle 4 is (4x-15). What is the measure of angle 7

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is 95

Answer 2

Answer:
∠7 = 95°

Explanation:
1- getting the value of x:
In the given figure, angle 1 and angle 4 are vertically opposite angles.
Therefore, they are equal in measurement
This means that:
3x + 10 = 4x - 15
4x - 3x = 10 + 15
x = 25

2- getting the value of angle 4:
We know that:
x = 25 and ∠4 is 4x-15
This means that:
∠4 = 4(25) - 15
∠4 = 85°

3- getting the value of ∠6:
From the given figure, we can see that ∠4 and ∠6 are supplement angles, this means that their summation is 180°.
We have calculated that ∠4 is 85°, therefore:
180 = ∠4 + ∠6
∠6 = 180 - ∠4
∠6 = 180 - 85
∠6 = 95°

4- getting the value of angle 7:
From the drawing, we can note that ∠6 and ∠7 are vertically opposite angles. This means that they are equal in measurements.
Therefore:
∠7 = ∠6 = 95°

Hope this helps :)
