I need help on number 19.

OpenStudy (ab123):

OpenStudy (3mar):

Are these angles equal? #19 ?

OpenStudy (ab123):

I'm not sure

OpenStudy (3mar):

They are coloured red, so I think they are equal, unless it states other relation before 18 and 19.

OpenStudy (ab123):

They're probably equal. It doesn't say anything else.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Yes, the two angles marked with the little red marks are congruent, so their measures are equal.

OpenStudy (ab123):

Can you work through the steps with me?

OpenStudy (3mar):

Then you can equate their magnitudes to each other and get x. Go this and solve for x.

OpenStudy (3mar):

Of course. I am watching! Go ahead!

OpenStudy (ab123):

Can you help me start? I'm a little confused.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Once you know the two angles have the same measure, set the two measures equal. That gives you an equation. One measure is 2x + 8. The other measure is x + 22. The measures are equal, so 2x + 8 = x + 22 Now you have an equation that can be solved for x.

OpenStudy (ab123):

x=14?

OpenStudy (3mar):

Correct! It is 14

OpenStudy (ab123):

Thank you!

OpenStudy (3mar):

You are welcome!

OpenStudy (3mar):

any more questions?

OpenStudy (ab123):

I'm not sure if I will have any more questions. Can I tag you if I have any more?

OpenStudy (3mar):

Of course. Any Help... Anytime.

OpenStudy (3mar):

Thank you for the medal!

OpenStudy (ab123):

No problem!

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

2x + 8 = x + 22 2x - x + 8 - 8 = x - x + 22 - 8 x = 14 Correct.
