Question

It's just a simple equation but the transversal has me stuck

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Since SV ║ RU,

∠VSR + ∠SRU = 180⁰   [ The sum of co- interior angles is 180° ]

⇒ ( 5x + 4 ) + ( 44 + x ) = 180⁰

By solving the equation,

5x + 4 + 44 + x = 180⁰

            6x + 48 = 180⁰

                     6x = 180 - 48

                      6x = 132

                         x = 132 / 6

                          x = 22

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

∠VSR and ∠SRU are same- side interior angles and are supplementary, thus

5x + 4 + 44 + x = 180, that is

6x + 48 = 180 ( subtract 48 from both sides )

6x = 132 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 22
