Question

Two lines intersect to form 4 angles. Angles 2 and 4 are vertical angles with angle 2 = 4x + 12 and angle 4 = 7x - 6. a) Find x. b) What is the measure of angle 2 ?

Answer 1

Does this help?

Explanation:

2 = 4x + 12 and angle 4 = 7x - 6

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Slope: 0

y-intercept: 4

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Slope: 0

y-intercept: 2

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Slope: 0

y-intercept: 4

Graph 2= 4x + 12

Slope: Undefined

y-intercept: No y-intercept

Plot each graph on the same coordinate system.

4=

2=

4=

2= 4x + 12

4= 7x − 6
