Answer:

Alternate Interior Angles; 95°

Explanation:

Alternate interior angles have the same measure (meaning they are the same number of degrees.) You can set up an equation to solve for x.

11x - 4 = 9x + 14

+4 +4

11x = 9x + 18

-9x -9x

2x = 18 x = 9 Now substitute 9 into one of the expressions.

11(9)-4

99 - 4 = 95

Check the other expression...

9(9)+14

81 + 14 = 95
