Question

∠1 and ∠2 are vertical angles. If m∠1 = (17x + 1)° and m∠2 = (20x – 14)°, find m∠2. Answer with "m∠2=_"

Answer 1

Answer:

m<2 = 86

Explanation:

Vertical angles means the angles are equal to each other so:

<1 = <2

17x + 1 = 20x - 14

17x - 20x = -14 - 1

-3x = -15

x = 5

m<2:

20x - 14

20(5) - 14

100 - 14

86
