greatest common factor=gcf
least common multule=lcm
with 12 and 16
factors of 12=2 times 2 times 3
factors of 16=2 times 2 times 2 times 2
greates common factor is 2 times 2=4
least common multiple means all factors combined minus repeats or 2 times 2 times 2 times 2 time 3=48
Since they're vertical angles, they're equal in degree measure
since they're equal, we can make the two expressions equal to each other
5a - 1 = 2a + 20
add 1 to both sides
5a = 2a + 21
subtract 2a from both sides
3a = 21
divide both sides by 3a
a = 7
now, plug the answer you found for a into one of the two expressions
5a - 1 becomes (5*7) - 1, which equals 34
to double check that they're equivalent (since they're vertical angles)
2a + 20 becomes (2*7) + 20, which equals 34
both angles are 34 degrees!
Answer:
