Question

using the angles below, answer each question to the right.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify angle - relationship

The two given angles are vertical angles, and vertical angles are equal. So we set up the equation $2x + 25=50$.

Step2: Solve the equation for x

Subtract 25 from both sides: $2x=50 - 25$, so $2x = 25$. Then divide both sides by 2: $x=\frac{25}{2}=12.5$.

Answer:

$x = 12.5$
