Opposite angles are equal to each other.

We set the two values equal to each other and get the result;


  • 8x+32=12x+19

  • 12x-8x=32-19

  • 4x=13

  • x=(13)/(4)

As decimal;


  • 13/ 4=3.25

Answer:

3.25

Explanation:

If the angles (8x+32)° and (12x+19)° are opposite angles, then they are congruent. In geometry, opposite angles formed by intersecting lines are equal in measure.

So, you can set up an equation to solve for x:

8x + 32 = 12x + 19

Now, let's solve for x:

Subtract 8x from both sides:

32 = 4x + 19

Subtract 19 from both sides:

13 = 4x

Now, divide by 4:

x = 13 / 4

x = 3.25 (as a decimal)

So, the value of x is 3.25.
