Question

What is the measure of the highlighted angle?

Answer 1

130

Explanation:

The two angles with measurements are vertical angles and vertical angles are equal

12x-2 = 10x+20

Subtract 10x from each side

12x-10x -2 =10x-10x+20

2x-2 = 20

Add 2 to each side

2x-2+2 =20+2

2x= 22

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =22/2

x =11

We want to find 2x-2

12(11)-2

132-2
