Question

Find the measure of the angle indicated in bold, which is 6x

Answer 1

The measure of that angle is 60 degrees. To solve this, first, you set the 2 measures equal to each other, because they are congruent. So your equation is 6x=5x+10. Subtract 5x from both sides, leaving you with x=10. Lastly, substitute 10 for x. You multiply 6 by 10, which equals 60.
