Question

Select the correct answer.

Answer 1

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
