Answer:

m= 27

Explanation:

m° +66° +m°= 120° (vert. opp. ∠s)

Simplify:

2m° +66°= 120°

2m°= 120° -66°

2m°= 54°

Divide both sides by 2:

m°= 54° ÷2

m°= 27°

m= 27

What are vertically opposite angles?

  • When two lines intersect, the angles facing opposite each other are equal
  • Abbreviated as 'vert. opp. ∠s'
