Explanation:

I don't know if this is the right way to so it, but I would do it like this

since a triangle has 180 degrees, the angles all have to add up to 180

So 180 = a + b + c

we already know a, its 95

So 180 = 95 + b + c

now we know the equation for b, so we'll just put it there instead of the b, and since the angles are the same, we should put it instead of c too

180 = 95 + (4x-15) + (4x-15)

now subtract 95 from both sides

85 = (4x-15) + (4x-15)

add the xs and numbers together

85 = 8x - 30

now add the 30 to both sides

115 = 8x

divide by 8

your x is 14 3/8 or 14.375 or 115/8

that's not your angle, that's your x
