Question

M<1 = 125 and m<4 = (x + 35)
what equation will solve for x
x + _ = _

Answer 1

To solve for \( x \) using the information provided, we first need to understand the relationship between the angles \( M \angle 1 \) and \( m \angle 4 \).

Given:
- \( M \angle 1 = 125^\circ \)
- \( m \angle 4 = x + 35 \)

If these angles are related by a property (like being supplementary), we can set up an equation. For example, if they are supplementary angles, we would have:

\[
M \angle 1 + m \angle 4 = 180
\]

Substituting the values:

\[
125 + (x + 35) = 180
\]

Now we simplify the equation:

\[
125 + x + 35 = 180
\]

Combine like terms:

\[
x + 160 = 180
\]

Now, to isolate \( x \):

\[
x + 160 - 160 = 180 - 160
\]

\[
x = 20
\]

To express the equation in the format you requested \( x + _ = _ \):

We can rewrite it as:

\[
x + 160 = 180
\]

So, the completed equation is:

\[
x + 160 = 180
\]
