Opposite interior angles are equal, so
4x - 10 = 2x + 20
2x - 10 = 20
2x = 30
x = 15
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
in the figure above, angle 100 degrees is corresponding to the angle co - interior to angle x
that is
if we put an angle that is at the upper left of x, we can call that y which is corresponding to 100 degrees
since y is corresponding to 100 degrees, it automatically becomes the same as 100 degrees
therefore y=100
now, from the first line above, we know that x and y are co-interior which means that they both add up to 180 degrees
that is
x+y=180
we know that y = 100
therefore,
x+100=180
collect like terms and
x = 180-100
therefore,
x= 80
thank you!!
You are dividing a number (x) by three and then subtracting 1 like this. (x/3)-1
