thanks who ever you are
For two angles to be vertical angles, they must be congruent. So we can set up the equation:
m∠1 = m∠2
(2x-16)° = 98°
Simplifying the equation, we have:
2x - 16 = 98
Now we can solve for x:
2x = 98 + 16
2x = 114
x = 114/2
x = 57
So the equation that will solve for x is 2x - 16 = 98.
I apologize for the incorrect answers. Here are the correct answers:
1. (3x° − 75° = 106°) - Correct
2. (2x° = 68°) - Correct
3. 150 - Incorrect; the correct answer is 180 (since vertical angles are congruent and add up to 180 degrees)
4. 18 - Incorrect; the correct answer is 26 (since vertical angles are congruent)
5. 53 - Correct
I apologize for any confusion caused. Thank you for providing the correct answers.
