Answer:
X=16
Step-by-step explanation:
according to the diagram above in the attached file
(8x-8)=(7x+8)
8x-7x=8+8
X=16
For two lines to be perpendicular, their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:
m1*m2=-1, in this case our reference line has a slope of -3 so:
-3m=-1 divide both sides by -3
m=-1/-3
m=1/3
So the perpendicular line will have a slope of 1/3
If I was to just divide it I would say it is 1/8
Angle 1= 45
Angle 2= 76
Angle 3= 80
