Find m∠ABC.
@Vocaloid
these are vertical angles so as usual, solve for x, plug it back into m<ABC
would it be 90 degrees or 180 degrees? @Vocaloid

please review the definitions of vertical angles, right angles, and straight angles
@Vocaloid so 180?
look at your picture to see which diagram best represents your situation
notice, how, in your original problem, you have an X-shape with two angles across from each other now take a look at the three diagrams I posted. which one looks most like that?
the first one?
good. use the diagram as a guide to solve the problem.
notice what the diagram tells you. the two angles across from each other on the x-shape are equal. try to apply this logic to your problem.
180/2=90?

|dw:1548834242246:dw|
notice how A = B apply this logic to the shape on the left
6x-7=4x+23?
perfect now solve for x, and find m<BAC
*m<ABC
15?
almost that's the value of x take a look at the diagram to find out what m<ABC should be
@Vocaloid I don't understand
look at your problem what is the value of m<ABC?
what is the angle formed by the points A, B, and C?
obtuse?
|dw:1548834838506:dw|
|dw:1548834859468:dw|
notice how I found the points A, B, and C, and see how the angle I circled is m<ABC? so now, using your x-value, find m<ABC
what is m?
m means you are looking for the measure of an angle
m<ABC = "what is the degree measure of ABC?"
if you are still confused, please refer to the problems we did before, you were doing it fine before
@Vocaloid in the earlier problems, I was doing it like" (6x-7)+(4x+23)=90(or 180)
it's exactly like this one
@Vocaloid 83?
good
