9. ∠ABC and ∠EBF are a pair of vertical angles; m∠ABC = 3x + 8 and m∠EBF = 2x + 48. What are m∠ABC and m∠EBF?
Answer choices? And what do you think the answer is?
No answer choices... But i think youre supposed to solve for x: 3x + 8 = 2x + 48 Then apply x to each equation and find the measures...
Do you know how to solve for x, if this is the path we are supposed to go down?
Yep ik 3x + 8 = 2x + 48 -2x -2x x + 8 = 48 x = 40
Now what would you do with x = 40 ???
m∠ABC = 3x + 8 3(40) + 8 120 + 8 m∠ABC = 128 m∠EBF = 2x + 48 2(40) + 48 80 + 48 128
Ugh I keep getting disconnected
Lol me too
It's like a roller coaster
Ok so now you got the answer for both angles ;3
I did it through the right method?
Perhaps c; I had 20min of sleep so I may not be the best source for mathematical help xD
XD
But I do agree with how you solved this
Very well done
Thanks :3
