Question

the measure of two angle are (8x+24) and (12x-16) what is the value of x if theses angle ar congruent

Answer 1

Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation: Congruent means they are the same, so you set up the problem as 8x+24=12x-16. Then you just solve for x. Subtract 8x from both sides to get 24=4x-16. Then add 16 to both sides. 40=4x. Then divide by 4 into both sides to get x=10.
