Answer:

X = 25 degrees

Definitions:

Vertical: Opposite angles/angles that share a common side.

Adjacent: Congruent meaning same measure.

Explanation:

This equation would be vertical because they are opposite from eachother:

Our equation would look like this:

75 = 4x - 25

Then add 75 and 25 to get 100:

75 + 25 = 100

Now our equation would look like this:

100 = 4x

Lastly, divide 100 with 4:

100 ÷ 4 = 100

Side note: 25 x 4 = 100

Your answer would be x = 25 degrees.

Hope this helps!
