Given:
Two lines intersect each other.
Consider the below figure attached with this question.
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
If two lines intersect each other then the vertically opposite angles are congruent and their measures are equal.
In the given figure, the measures of two vertically opposite angles are (2x+29)° and (9x-13)°.
Divide both sides by -7.
Therefore, the value of x is 6.
Starting from what I know (the difference between ribbons), I decided to go from the bottom and work my way up. I then noticed a pattern (each sum was three more of the previous one), and decided to keep my pattern of the three numbers but not have to do any major mental work and instead add three to the previous sum until I got to 38.
Check the picture below.
