Answer:

x = 10

Explanation:

Angles 12x and 10x + 20 are "vertical angles," meaning that they are identical (same value). Therefore we can write the equation 12x = 10x + 20, which reduces to 2x = 20, or x = 10.

Answer:

x=10

Explanation:

Hey There!

Those are a pair of vertical angles

Therefore they are congruent

congruent meaning identical in form

So we would setup and equation and because the angles are congruent the equation would be

12x=10x+20 and solve for x

Step 1 subtract 10x from each side

10x-10x cancels out

12x-10x=2x

now we have

2x=20

Step 2 divide each side by 2

2/2 cancels out

20/2=10

Therefore x=10
