Thanks remi :) is that 3x - 160 in that right corner of the left intersection?
Like this one? |dw:1613008006666:dw|
If the picture is correct, then this is known as a pair of "Alternate Interior Angles" Here's some more information about these kinds of angles: https://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/alternate-interior-angles.html#:~:text=When%20two%20lines%20are%20crossed,opposite%20sides%20of%20the%20transversal.
Basically: 3x - 160 = x is the equation you want to solve
Do you know how to solve algebra problems like that @remi2019 ? 3x - 160 = x
dang...u got one big brain lol
yes that is what it says
no i dont know how to solve it
?
ok, so the rules for working with problems like that is called -> whatever you do to one side, you do to the other so if I Subtract "x" from both sides 3x - 160 = x -x -x
2x - 160 = 0 does that make sense / have you seen this before?
no

?
but wouldnt it =180 not 0
=180 is a different type of problem it would = x this time but I tried to move the x to the other side of the equals sign
ok
so what would the answer be? and how did you find it
2x = 160 "Two times our missing number is equal to 160"
what's the missing value?
80???
YOU GOT IT
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH
