Use the fact that 125^(∘) and (5x+30)^(∘) are vertical angles.
x=19^(∘)
Practice makes perfect
Consider the given diagram
We want to find the value of x. From the given diagram, we know that 125^(∘) and (5x+30)^(∘) are vertical angles. This means that both have the same measure.
125^(∘)=5x+30^(∘)
Let's solve this equation for x. Note that to make calculations easier, we can ignore the symbol ^(∘) and add it to the result.
