Given the angles:
• (3x + 27) degrees
,
• 96 degrees
Let's solve for x
The given angles are vertical angles and vertical angles are congruent.
Hence, we have the equation:
(3x + 27) = 96
Let's solve for x from the equation.
3x + 27 = 96
Subtract 27 from both sides:
3x + 27 - 27 = 96 - 27
3x = 69
divide both sides by 3:

ANSWER:
x = 23
