Question

The measures of the angles In alinear pair are x degree and (x+25) degree. Find the measures of each of them

Answer 1

77.5° and

102.5°

Explanation:

Angles in a linear pair sum up to 180°

Therefore, x + (x +25) = 180

x + x +25 = 180

2x + 25 = 180

2x = 180- 25

2x 155°

dividing bothsides by 2

x = 155/2

x = 77.5

Therefore,

x = 77.5°

(x+25) = 77.5 + 25 = 102.5°
