Answer 1

Answer: x = 8

Each angle is 120 degrees

===============================================================

Explanation:

The top and bottom angles are vertical angles, so they are congruent to each other. This means they are the same measure.

14x+8 = 4x+88

14x+8-8 = 4x+88-8 ... subtract 8 from both sides

14x = 4x+80

14x-4x = 4x+80-4x ... subtract 4x from both sides

10x = 80

10x/10 = 80/10 ... divide both sides by 10

x = 8

Once you know x, you can figure out each angle

top angle = 4x+88 = 4*8+88 = 120 degrees

botom angle = 14x+8 = 14*8+8 = 120 degrees

Both angles are 120 degrees so this helps confirm we have the proper x value
