Answer:
a) 4x + 76 = 180 (x = 26)
b)
- m<1 = 102
- m<2 = 78
Step-by-step explanation:
First we know 4x + 76 = 180. The reason for that is we know angle one plus angle two = 180 so 3x + 1x + 76 has to equal 180.
We can solve for x now.
4x + 76 = 180.
Subtract 76 to maintain equality on both sides.
4x = 104.
x = 26
Now we can get the angles.
For angle #1 let's substitute x as 26.
angle one = 26 + 76.
angle one = 102
For angle #2 let's substitute x as 26.
angle two = 3(26)
angle two = 78
Let's check!
78 + 102 = 180.
180 = 180 YES
Well, this took some time :)
