To find the measure of each angle, we need to set the expressions for their measures equal to each other.
5x + 23 = 3x + 35
Now we can solve for x.
2x = 12
x = 6
Now that we have found the value of x, we can substitute it back into either expression to find the measure of each angle.
For m22:
m22 = 5(6) + 23
m22 = 30 + 23
m22 = 53°
For m24:
m24 = 3(6) + 35
m24 = 18 + 35
m24 = 53°
So, the measure of each angle is 53°.
For two vertical angles with measures m 22 = (5x + 23) ° and m 24 = (3x + 35) °, what is the
measure of each angle? (1 point)
