Let's solve this problem step-by-step.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We will be using simultaneous equations to solve this problem.

The sum of angles on a straight line is 180°.

( R ) and ( 2x + 5 ) are both on the same straight line.

Therefore:

Equation No. 1 -

R + 2x + 5 = 180

R = 180 - 2x - 5

R = 175 - 2x

Vertically opposite angles are equivalent to each other.

( R ) is vertically opposite ( 3x + 15 ).

Therefore:

Equation No. 2 -

R = 3x + 15

Substitute the value of ( R ) from the first equation into the second equation to solve for ( x )

R = 3x + 15

175 - 2x = 3x + 15

- 2x - 3x = 15 - 175

- 5x = - 160

x = - 160 / - 5

x = 160 / 5

x = 32

Next we will substitute the value of ( x ) from the second equation into the first equation to solve for ( R ).

Equation No. 2 -

R = 175 - 2x

R = 175 - 2 ( 32 )

R = 175 - 64

R = 111

FINAL ANSWER:

Therefore, the answer is:

R = 111

x = 32

Hope this helps! :)

Answer: 101 Degrees for angle BCD

Step-by-step explanation: All 3 angles in any triangle add up to 180, in the first triangle (one on the left), you have 58 and 78 degrees, add them both and subtract from 180, you get 44 degrees for angle C on the left. Do the same on the right side of the triangle, you should get 35 degrees for angle C on the right. Add them both up, (35+44) then subtract from 180 degrees to find the measure of angle BCD.
