Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles are congruent because of the Vertical Angles Theorem. Since we now know that they're congruent, we can set up an equation to like this:

15x = 16x - 5

Now that we have an equation, we can solve for x.

First, we subtract 15x from both sides. Now we're left with an equation that should look like this:

0 = x - 5

Now we add 5 to both sides to get our solution. It should look like this.

5 = x

And there's your answer! Hope this helps.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both angles together will equal as they are opposite of each other

therefore

15x=16x-5

15x+5=16x

5=x

kondor19780726 [428]

Trigonometry can be used to find angles and sides of simple triangles. If an 18-foot ladder touches a building 14 feet up the wall then the angle can be deduced by trigonometry. In this case, the ladder defines the hypotenuse (H) of the triangle and the wall defines the opposite (O) side of the triangle. Therefore we can use the equation theta=sin^-1(O/H) . This yields an angle of 51 degrees.
