Answer:
44°
Explanation:
8x - 4 = 6x + 8 (This is because they are corresponding angles)
8x - 6x = 8 + 4
2x = 12
x = 12 ÷ 2
x = 6
6x + 8 = angle 1 (Vertically opposite angles are equal)
Substitute the value of x in the equation '6x +8' to get the size of the angle.
6 × 6 + 8
36 + 8 = 44°
Angle 1 = 44°
