PLEASE ANSWER QUESTION

In the figure below, angle y and angle x form vertical angles. Angle y forms a straight line with the 80° angle and the 60° angle.

A straight line is shown and is marked with three angles. The first angle measures 80 degrees. The second angle measures 60 degrees. The third angle is labeled y. The line between the 60 degree angle and angle y extends below the straight line. The angle formed is labeled angle x.

Write and solve an equation to determine the measure of angle x.



Answer :

Answer:

60+80+x=180

Step-by-step explanation:

__ + __ + __ = __ fill in the blanks

if 60, 80, and y have a sum of 180, the equation is 60+80+x=180

That is how you set up the equation and then simply solve for x which comes out to a measure of 40 degrees because 60+40+80= 180
