Question

An illustration shows a slanting line intersecting with two lines that appear parallel. The angles that the slanting line forms with the top line are labeled from the top left in a clockwise direction as 1, 2, 4, and 3. The angles that the slanting line forms with the bottom line are labeled from the top left in a clockwise direction as 5, 6, 8, and 7.

m∠1=125° and m∠4=(x+35)°

Answer 1

The equation that will solve for x is:

125° + (x + 35)° = 180°

Answer 2

ok the 180 is incorrect

Answer 3

Apologies for the incorrect response.

The correct equation that will solve for x is:

125° + (x + 35)° = 180° - 125°

Simplifying the equation:

x + 35° = 55°

Now, we can solve for x:

x = 55° - 35°

x = 20°

Answer 4

thats wrong too reread the question and reanswer it

Answer 5

Apologies for the incorrect response again.

Let's revisit the question and answer it accurately.

m∠1 = 125°

m∠4 = (x + 35)°

Since angles 1 and 4 are corresponding angles, they are congruent. Therefore, we can set up the equation:

m∠1 = m∠4

125° = x + 35°

To solve for x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 35° from both sides:

125° - 35° = x

90° = x

So, the equation that solves for x is x = 90°.
