Respuesta :

These are vertical angles. Therefore

(2x)=87-x

Add x to each side


3x=87


X=29

Answer:

The measures of the labeled angles are 58°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the two angles are opposite angles, they have to be equal, meaning:

[tex]2x = 87 - x[/tex]

Solve by adding x to both sides and dividing by 3.

[tex]3x = 87 \\ x = 29[/tex]

If x = 29°, then 2x= 58°.

Since opposite angels are equal, the other angle is also 58°.

This can be checked:

[tex]87 - 29 = 58[/tex]
