The marked angles are opposite angles, and as such they have the same measure. So, we have


6a+11 = 2a+83

Subtract 2a and 11 from both sides to get


4a = 72

Divide both sides by 4 to get


a = (72)/(4) = 18

Now that we know the value of a, we can compute the measure of the angles. We can also verify that the solution we found is correct by verifying that both expressions actually give the same result:


6a+11 = 6\cdot 18 + 11 = 119


2a+83 = 2\cdot 18 + 83 = 119
