Question

The angle measurements in the diagram are represented by the following expressions.

LA=5x-5°
ZB = 3x + 13°
B

Answer 1

A = B

5X-5 = 3X+13

5X-3X. =13+5

2X =18

X = 9

5X-5

(5×9)-5

45-5

=40

ANGLE A=ANGLE B =40

Answer 2

x=9

Explanation:

angle A =angle B (because they are corresponding angles)

5x-5=3x+13

5x-3x=13+5

2x=18

x=18/2

x=9

angle A=5x-5

=5*9-5

=45-5

=40

angle B=3x+13

=3*9+13

=27+13

=40
