Respuesta :

The measure of ∠7 is 47°. Angle 7 is a vertical angle to angle 5

Suppose the measure of ∠6 is represented represented by (2x - 5), the equation that can be use to solve for x is 42 + 2x = 180

The value of x is 69

Vertical opposite angles

Vertically opposite angles are angles that are opposite one another at a specific vertex and are created by two straight intersecting lines.

Vertical opposite angles are congruent. Therefore,

a. ∠5 ≅ ∠7 (vertical angles)

Therefore, angles 5 and 7 are congruent angles.

∠7 = 47°

b. Suppose ∠6 = 2x - 5 . let's find x

Therefore,

∠5 + ∠6 = 180(angle on a straight line)

The equation to solve the above is as follows:

47 + 2x - 5 = 180

42 + 2x = 180

2x = 180 - 42

2x = 138

x = 138 / 2

x = 69
