Question

Find the measure of the angle indicated in bold. please include explanation.

Answer 1

Answer:

D 95

Step-by-step explanation:

46x+3 = 48x-1 (corresponding angles are congruent)

now isolate x

2x = 4

2x/2 = 4/2

x = 2

plug x = 2 back into 48x-1 since it's the bold angle

48(2) - 1 = 96-1 = 95

Answer 2

Answer:

D 95

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles are corresponding angles and corresponding angles are equal

46x+3 = 48x-1

Subtract 46x from each side

46x -46x+3 = 48x-46x-1

3 = 2x-1

Add 1 to each side

3+1 =2x-1+1

4 = 2x

Divide by 2 on each side

4/2 = 2x/2

2 =x

We need to find the bold angle 48x-1

48(2)-1

96-1

95
