Question

Solve for b please! :)

Answer 1

x=9 and angle B = 40°.

Explanation:

Since angles A and B are corresponding angles, they both equal one another. Your equation should be set up like this:

5x-5° = 3x+13°

Once you solve for x, you'll get 9.

To solve for angle B, plug the value of x in the equation:

3(9)+13°

27+13°

Angle B = 40°.
