Question

geometry help ?

Answer 1

what do you need help with?

Answer 2

@SmokeysTheName ^^

Answer 3

I am not too familiar with that kind of work, I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to let someone else take over from there!

Answer 4

im pretty sure you have to set them equal to each other but honestly I have no clue, and I don't wanna give you wrong directions.

Answer 5

@agent0smith can help :D

Answer 6

@agent0smith help me ! lol

Answer 7

180-(6x+11)=180-(7x-8)
as straight line has angle of 180'
so 6x+11=7x-8
19'=x

Answer 8

@sarahusher , can you help me with another ?

Answer 9

As they are opposite angles, you can set them equal without the 180- part.

Answer 10

The angles are equal, set them equal, @SmokeysTheName was correct.

@sarahusher just set them equal to each other, with an unnecessary 180 on both sides! :P

Answer 11

Where the 180 comes in is if they are next to each other, supplementary. Then it is \(f(x)^\circ+g(x)^\circ=180^\circ\)

Answer 12

how would i solve this ? @e.mccormick , @agent0smith ?

Answer 13

@lanana Angles One and Three are called vertical angles (or opposite angles in some books).

Theorem: Vertical angles are congruent.

Congruent angles have the same measure.

So, with that information, what is the answer to the question?

Answer 14

^that. Angles 2 and 4 are equal. Angles 1 and 3 are equal.

Answer 15

i don't understand how that would help me solve the question ? @Directrix

Answer 16

Look at the diagram. The two angles marked have the same measure.

Answer 17

Yea , i understand that i don't understand what to do next ? lol @Directrix

Answer 18

What is the measure of angle 3?

Answer 19

If you know the size of angle 3, and you know angle 1 is equal... then what's angle 3?

Angle 3 is 37. It is equal to angle 1. Angle 1 must be...

Answer 20

37 ? lol

Answer 21

Yes! :P
