Answer 1

Explanation:

The problem shows a 90° angle split by a ray, we know that both angles are equal to 90° because the whole is equal to the sum of its parts therefore adding 6b+7 and 7b-8 gives us 90° which is simplified as

13b°-1°= 90°

add 1 to both sides

13b°-1° + 1° = 90° +1°

13b° = 91°

divide by 13

13b°/13 = 91°/13

b= 7°

Answer 2

Here in this image, we are given two acute angles forming a right angle. A right angle is equal to 90 degrees. To find the value of b, we will add the two acute angles and set it equal to the right angle, which is 90 degrees.

7b-8+6b+7=90
Combine like terms:
13b-1=90
Add 1 to both sides:
13b=91
Divide 13 to both sides:
b=7
