so what do vertical angles have to do with each other?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oppsit to each other when two lines cross. They are always equal. ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
they are equal
OpenStudy (anonymous):
create an equasion

and solve it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
How???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lets see
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so one angle = 80
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and the other = 2x + 6

and vertical angles are equal
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so make an equasion
OpenStudy (anonymous):
need more help?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes please

ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
angle A = 2x + 6
angle B = 80
A = B
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you know what substitution is
OpenStudy (anonymous):
?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No

OpenStudy (anonymous):
so if A = B
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and B = 80
OpenStudy (anonymous):
than A = 80
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you see why?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):
that is what substitution is
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now substitute for A in A = 80
OpenStudy (anonymous):
B is 80
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Still dont get it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A = B = 80
take the B part off and you get A = 80. See what I said right after you said "No".

You should have at least learned how to substitute if you were given that problem
OpenStudy (anonymous):
here's the equation: 2x + 6 = 80
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I am sure you can solve from there
