X=95°(right opposite angle)

As X is right opposite to 95°,meaning that it would be 95° as well.
Please do remember that any angles that are right opposite to each other would be equal.

hope it helps!

Hello!

As you can see, the angles are congruent. These kin of angles are called vertical angles.

Vertical angles are angles opposite of each other. They always measure the same.

In this pair of vertical angles, one of them is 95°. That means the other angle is also 95°

$\framebox{x = 95 \°}$

The speed of the current is 40.34 mph approximately.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, a man can drive a motorboat 70 miles down the Colorado River in the same amount of time that he can drive 40 miles upstream.

We have to find the speed of the current if the speed of the boat is 11 mph in still water. Now, let the speed of river be a mph. Then, speed of boat in upstream will be a-11 mph and speed in downstream will be a+11 mph.

And, we know that, $\text{ distance } =\text{ speed }\times \text{ time }$

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { So, for upstream } \rightarrow 40=(a-11) \times \text { time taken } \rightarrow \text { time taken }=\frac{40}{a-11}} \\\\ {\text { And for downstream } \rightarrow 70=(a+11) \times \text { time taken } \rightarrow \text { time taken }=\frac{70}{a+11}}\end{array}$

We are given that, time taken for both are same. So $\frac{40}{a-11}=\frac{70}{a+11}$

$\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow 40(a+11)=70(a-11)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 40 a+440=70 a-770} \\\\ {\rightarrow 70 a-40 a=770+440} \\\\ {\rightarrow 30 a=1210} \\\\ {\rightarrow a=40.33}\end{array}$
