Question

BRAINLIEST!!!

Given the figure below, find the values of x and z.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

87 and z are opposite so the are equal. The x equation is on the same line as the 87 degree angle so those 2 added together have to equal 180 so subtract 87 from 180 and get 93 and set 93 equal to 9x-87 and solve to get x=20

Answer 2

Answer:

=> z = 87° { vertically opposite angle }

=> 87° + (9x-87) = 180° { linear pair }

=> 87 +9x-87 = 180

=> 9x = 180°

=> x = 180/9

=> x = 20°
