Answer 1

Answer:

The angle 6 measures 54 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 6 is congruent to angle 7 ("-2x+34") as it is an opposite angle in straight line intersection. But angle 6 is congruent to angle 2 (-9x-36) due to the two horizontal lines being parallel. So we can write the following equality to determine the value of x:

-2x + 34 = -9x -36

7x = -70

==> x = -10

Now we can answer the question:  the angle 6 is

-2x + 34 = -2(-10)+34 = 54 degrees
