Applying the vertical angles theorem, the measure of VU is determined as: 64°.
What is the Vertical Angles Theorem?
If two angles lie directly opposite each other, they are vertical nagles and are therefore equal.
13x = 15x - 8 [vertical angles theorem]
13x - 15x = - 8
-2x = -8
x = 4
Let y represent m(VU). Since m(RV) = m(VU), therefore:
13x + 2y = 180 [angles on a straight line]
Plug in the value of x
13(4) + 2y = 180
52 + 2y = 180
2y = 180 - 52
2y = 128
y = 64°
m(VU) = 64°.
