In a geometric figure two intersecting lines creating four angles. If ∠1 and ∠3 are a vertical pair, m∠1=(4x+26)° , and m∠3=98° , what is the value of x ?(1 point)

Answer 1

If ∠1 and ∠3 are a vertical pair, they are congruent (∠1 = ∠3). Therefore, we can set up the equation:

4x + 26 = 98

Subtracting 26 from both sides:

4x = 72

Dividing both sides by 4:

x = 18
