There are two vertical angles in a figure with measures m<1 = (2x - 16) and m<2 = 98 . What equation will solve for x?

Question

___x -__ = ___

Answer 1

To set up an equation to solve for x, we will use the fact that vertical angles are congruent. Therefore, m<1 = m<2.

We know that m<1 = (2x - 16) and m<2 = 98, so we can set up the equation as follows:

2x - 16 = 98

Now we can solve for x.
