Two intersecting lines create four angles; ∠1 and ∠3 are a vertical pair. Their sum is equal to 68°. What equation solves for the value of each angle?(1 point)
4 answers
∠1 + ∠3 = 68°
oi!
what do you mean by "each angle"? Just the vertical pair, or each of the four angles?
It is true that ∠1 + ∠3 = 68° but since vertical angles are congruent, that means that
∠1 + ∠1 = 68°
so ∠1 = ∠3 = 34°
and so ∠2 = ∠4 = 146°
It is true that ∠1 + ∠3 = 68° but since vertical angles are congruent, that means that
∠1 + ∠1 = 68°
so ∠1 = ∠3 = 34°
and so ∠2 = ∠4 = 146°
The correct answer is 2x = 68.
