Question

*PLZ HELP*

In the figure below, angle y and angle x form vertical angles. Angle y forms a straight line with the 80° angle and the 60° angle.


Write and solve an equation to determine the measure of angle x.

Answer 1

The answer of x is 40

Explanation:

If you add the total of 3 angles in a STRAIGHT line, you have to get the total of 180.

So, x = 180 - ( 80 + 60 )

= 180 - 140

= 40
