Hi there!

We know that the angles ∠B and ∠A are supplementary because they are both interior angles. Therefore:

180 = ∠A + ∠B

Rewrite:

180 = (6x - 48) + (4x + 38)

Combine like terms:

180 = 10x - 10

Solve for x:

190 = 10x

x = 19

Solve for ∠B by plugging in this value of x:

∠B = 4(19) + 38

∠B = 76 + 38

∠B = 114
