If two angles are supplementary, their measures add up to 180 degrees.
So, we have mLACB + mLBCD = 180.
Substituting the given measures, we have:
4x + (6x + 50) = 180.
Combining like terms, we have 10x + 50 = 180.
Subtracting 50 from both sides, 10x = 130.
Dividing both sides by 10, x = 13.
To find the measure of LACB, we substitute this value into the expression for mLACB:
mLACB = 4(13) = 52 degrees.
Therefore, the measure of LACB is 52 degrees.
Two angles are supplementary with measures mLACB = 4x° and mLBCD = (6x + 50) °. What is the measure of LACB? (1 point)
