Since vertical angles are congruent, we can set the measures of the two vertical angles equal to each other:
M angle one = M angle two
106° = 3X - 75
Now, we can solve this equation to find the value of X.
Adding 75 to both sides,
106 + 75 = 3X
181 = 3X
Lastly, dividing both sides by 3,
181/3 = X
Therefore, the equation to solve for X is X = 181/3.
There is a pair of vertical angles whose measures are M angle one equals 106° and M angle two equals 3X -75 what equation can you write to solve for X?
