Angles 2 and 4 are vertical angles, so they are congruent:
m∠2 = m∠4
5x + 23 = 3x + 35
2x = 12
x = 6
Now, plug in x = 6 to find the measures of the angles:
m∠2 = 5(6) + 23 = 30 + 23 = 53°
m∠4 = 3(6) + 35 = 18 + 35 = 53°
So, the measure of each angle is 53 degrees.
m∠2 = m∠4
5x + 23 = 3x + 35
2x = 12
x = 6
Now, plug in x = 6 to find the measures of the angles:
m∠2 = 5(6) + 23 = 30 + 23 = 53°
m∠4 = 3(6) + 35 = 18 + 35 = 53°
So, the measure of each angle is 53 degrees.
