Lol nawh you're find you just needed a bit of guidance ;)
Yes and what do we know about vertical angles?
OpenStudy (jazilove):
They're congruent
pooja195 (pooja195):
Good can you set up an equation that we can use to solve for x knowing that they are congruent?
OpenStudy (jazilove):
8x+3=4x+7
pooja195 (pooja195):
Good now solve for x

I don't know how else to say it, but (8x + 3) and (4x + 7) do not represent angles.
OpenStudy (jazilove):
Oh yea theyre sides, wow thanksxD
pooja195 (pooja195):
whoops :/
Either way they are still equal to each other xD
OpenStudy (jazilove):

pooja195 (pooja195):

Well, but we should make sure we're creating a rectangle instead of a square first.
pooja195 (pooja195):
@Hero seems to want to elaborate. He can help you out :-)
OpenStudy (jazilove):
Well, I got x=1, is that correct?
pooja195 (pooja195):
