Answer:

  • 12. x = 5, m∠1 = 13°
  • 13. a = 9°

Step-by-step explanation:

12..................................

Given:

  • m∠1 = (2x + 3)
  • m∠3  =  (6x - 17)
  • x? m∠1?

Solution:

∠1 and ∠3 are vertical angles.

We know the property that vertical angles are equal:

  • 2x + 3 = 6x - 17
  • 6x - 2x = 3 + 17
  • 4x = 20
  • x = 5
  • m∠1 = 2*5 + 3 = 13°

13 ..................................

Given

  • m ∠ 2 =  (15a + 8)
  • m ∠ 3 =  (5a - 8)
  • a = ?

Solution

∠2 and ∠3 are supplementary angles.

We know the property that supplementary angles add up to 180°:

  • 15a + 8 + 5a - 8 = 180°
  • 20a = 180°
  • a = 180°/20
  • a = 9°
