Answer:
x = 6
Explanation:
The 2 angles are vertically opposite and are congruent, so
5x + 100 = 3x + 112 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
2x + 100 = 112 ( subtract 100 from both sides )
2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
vertically opposite angles are equal
3x+112°=5x+100°
112°-100°=5x-3x
12°=2x
12°÷2=2x÷2
6°=x
therefore x=6°
