Answer:

x = 20

Explanation:

The angles that are marked are called "vertical angles" (I think of a pair of scissors) The two angles are equal to each other. (They get bigger or smaller together, like a pair of scissors)

So, set them equal to each other and solve.

3x + 50 = 6x - 10

SUBTRACT 3x from both sides.

50 = 3x - 10

ADD 10 to both sides.

60 = 3x

DIVIDE both sides by 3.

20 = x
