Since angle ∠1 and ∠3 are a vertical pair, they are congruent, so:
m∠1 = m∠3
(4x + 26)° = 98°
Subtracting 26 from both sides:
4x = 98 - 26
4x = 72
Dividing by 4:
x = 18
Therefore, the value of x is 18.
In a geometric figure two intersecting lines creating four angles. If ∠1 and ∠3 are a vertical pair, m∠1=(4x+26)° , and m∠3=98° , what is the value of x ?(1 point)Responses72 98 14 18
