Question
find m∠vpq.
Step1: Set up equation
Since the two - given angles are vertical angles, they are equal. So we set up the equation $2x + 25=x + 50$.
$2x+25=x + 50$
Step2: Solve for x
Subtract x from both sides: $2x - x+25=x - x + 50$, which simplifies to $x+25 = 50$. Then subtract 25 from both sides: $x=50 - 25$, so $x = 25$.
Step3: Find the measure of ∠VPQ
Substitute $x = 25$ into the expression for $\angle VPQ$ which is $2x+25$. So $2(25)+25=50 + 25=75^{\circ}$.
