Question

What is the value of x in the figure? Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 15 and 145 are vertical angles and congruent, thus

2x + 15 = 145 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

2x = 130 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 65

Answer 2

Answer:65

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+15=145. Because opposite angles are equal

2x+15=145

Collect like terms

2x=145-15

2x=130

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2=130/2

x=65
