Answer:
a) 37º
b) 143º
c) 2x - 5 = 143
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Angles 5 and 7 are vertical angles and therefore have the same measurements.
b) Angles 5 and 6 form a straight line and are therefore supplementary (add up to 180º). 180 - 37 = 143.
c) We found the measure of angle 6 is 143º in part b. We can set that equal to 2x - 5. Therefore the equation is 2x - 5 = 143.
