Question

What is the measure of ∠x?

Answer 1

x = 83

Explanation:

Well since this is a straight line it automatically means this line is 180 degrees.

Also that also tells us that it is an supplementary angle. (when either of two angles whose sum is 180)

97 + x = 180

subtract 97 from both sides

x = 180 - 97

x = 83

Answer 2

These two angles are supplementary, meaning that there sum is 180 degrees. To solve this make a formula:

97 + x = 180

Subtract 97 to both sides to isolate x

97 - 97 + x = 180 - 97

x = 83

Hope this helped!
