Question

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP

In the diagram, line l is parallel to line m and is cut by transversal n. The measure of angle one is equal to 3x+6 and angle two measures 6(x−2).
What is the measure of angle one?

Answer 1

24

Explanation:

Since the lines L and M are parallel:

Angle 1 and and 2 are alternate and their measurement is equal.

3x + 6 = 6x - 12 (we multiplied 6 with inside the parenthesis)

6 + 12 = 6x - 3x

18 = 3x divide both sides by 3

6 = x to find the angle measure replace x with 6

3x + 6 is 3*6 + 6 = 24
