Answer:

x = 12

Explanation:

Angle 4 and angle 2 are congruent to each other. Angle 6 is also congruent to angle 2. If both these statements are true, angle 4 is congruent to angle 6.

This means (8x + 4) = (6x + 28)

Now, you simply solve for x:

8x + 4 = 6x + 28

- 4 - 4

8x = 6x + 24

-6x -6x

2x = 24

2x/2 = 24/2

x = 12

Answer:

x = 12

Explanation:

∠4 = (8x + 4)°

∠6 = (6x + 28)°

∠4 = ∠6

(8x + 4) = (6x + 28)

-6x -6x

-----------------------

2x + 4 = 28

-4 -4

-----------------

2x = 24

÷2 ÷2

------------------

x = 12

I hope this helps!
