Find the measure of the marked angles.A line segment that falls left to right intersects a line segment that rises from left to right, forming four angles. The angle on the left measures (3x plus 34) degrees. The angle on the right measures (7x plus 10). left parenthesis 3 x plus 34 right parenthesis degrees(3x+34)° left parenthesis 7 x plus 10 right parenthesis degrees(7x+10)°

 

The measure of the angles is __ degrees.

These angles will be vertical, and thus, equal...so...

 

[ 3x + 34 ]  =  [ 7x + 10]    subtract 3x, 10 from both sides

 

24  =  4x      divide both sides by 

 

6  = x

 

So.....using   7x + 10.....the angles will measure   7(6) + 10  =  52°
