The relationship is vertical angles and the value of x is x = 10/3

How to determine the value of x

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The intersecting lines

In this lines, we can see that the angles x + 20 and 7x are vertical angles

By definition:

Vertical angles are congruent angles

So, we have

x + 20 = 7x

Collect the like terms

6x = 20

Divide both sides by 6

x = 20/6

So, we have

x = 10/3

Hence, the value of x is x = 10/3
