Answer:

x=11

z=88

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x:

We know that the angle on the left is 92. When there are perpendicular lines creating the angles, opposite angles are equal. So, we have:

6x+26=92

6x+26-26=92-26

6x=66

6x÷6=66÷6

x=11

Solving for z:

We know that when there are four adjacent angles created by perpendicular lines, the angles all add up to 360°. This means that we can subtract 92•2 from 360.

360-92•2

360-184

176

We can then divide this number by 2.

176÷2

88

This means that z=88.
