Use the image to answer the question.

An illustration shows a slanting line intersecting with two lines that appear parallel. The angles that the slanting line forms with the top line are labeled from the top left in a clockwise direction as 1, 2, 4, and 3. The angles that the slanting line forms with the bottom line are labeled from the top left in a clockwise direction as 5, 6, 8, and 7.

m∠1=125° and m∠4=(x+35)°

m∠4 + m∠1 + x = 180°

WRONG

Apologies for the mistake.

The correct equation to solve for x is:

m∠4 + m∠1 = 180°

Since m∠1 is given as 125°, the equation becomes:

125° + m∠4 = 180°

Solving for x, we have:

m∠4 = 180° - 125°

m∠4 = 55°

Therefore, x = 55°.

This is the way you are supposed to put it


x ° + ° = °

Apologies for the misunderstanding.

The correct equation to solve for x is:

x + (m∠4 + m∠1) = 180°

Since m∠1 is 125°, the equation becomes:

x + (125° + m∠4) = 180°

Therefore, the correct equation to solve for x is:

x + (m∠4 + 125°) = 180°

wrong again

I apologize for the confusion. The correct equation to solve for x is:

x + (m∠4 - m∠1) = 180°

Given that m∠1 is 125°:

x + (m∠4 - 125°) = 180°

THATS THE EXACT SAME EQUATION

Apologies for the confusion. The correct equation to solve for x is:

x + (m∠4 - m∠1) = 180°

Given that m∠1 is 125° and m∠4 is (x+35)°:

x + ((x+35)° - 125°) = 180°

Simplifying this equation, we have:

x + x + 35° - 125° = 180°

2x - 90° = 180°

To isolate x, we can add 90° to each side:

2x = 270°

Finally, we can divide by 2 to solve for x:

x = 135°
