The sum of the measures of two vertical angles is 300° . Solve for the measure of each angle.(1 point)
Let one angle be x degrees. Since vertical angles are congruent, the measure of the other angle will also be x degrees.
The sum of the measures of two vertical angles is x + x = 2x degrees.
According to the given information, 2x = 300°.
To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 2:
2x/2 = 300°/2
x = 150°
Therefore, the measure of each angle is 150°.
