Answer:
x = 5
m<B = 66°
Explanation:
Given:
<A = 8x + 74°
<B = 2x + 56°
Required:
✔️Solve for x
✔️Find m<B
Solution:
✔️m<A + m<B = 180° (same interior angles are supplementary)
8x + 74 + 2x + 56 = 180 (substitution)
Add like terms
10x + 130 = 180
Subtract 130 from each side
10x + 130 - 130 = 180 - 130
10x = 50
Divide both side by 10
10x/10 = 50/10
x = 5
✔️m<B = 2x + 56°
Plug in the value of x
m<B = 2(5) + 56 = 10 + 56
m<B = 66°
