The sum of the measure of angle M and angle L is 116°. The measure of angle M is 50°. The measure of angle L is (7x – 4)°.
To find the measure of angle L, we can substitute the given value of angle M into the equation for the sum of the angles M and L:
M + L = 116
Substituting M = 50 into the equation, we get:
50 + L = 116
Now, we can solve for L by isolating it on one side of the equation. Subtracting 50 from both sides, we have:
L = 116 - 50
Simplifying, we get:
L = 66
Therefore, the measure of angle L is 66°.
wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct it.
We are given:
M + L = 116°
and
M = 50°
Substituting the value of M into the first equation, we have:
50° + L = 116°
To solve for L, we can subtract 50° from both sides:
L = 116° - 50°
L = 66°
Therefore, the measure of angle L is 66°.
