m∠ 5 = 112° and m∠8 = (2x + 8)° . What equation will solve for x?

__x ° + __° = __°

3 answers

To find the equation that will solve for x, we need to set the two given angles equal to each other.

m∠5 = m∠8

112° = (2x + 8)°

112 = 2x + 8

Now, we can subtract 8 from both sides of the equation to isolate 2x.

112 - 8 = 2x

104 = 2x

Finally, we can divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for x.

52 = x

So, the equation to solve for x is:

52° + __° = __°
answer
52° + 8° = 60°
