Given:
[tex]m\angle1=8x-102\text{ and }m\angle4=2x+6[/tex]
Required:
[tex]\text{ Find the measure of }\angle2.[/tex]
Explanation:
Step 1:
[tex]m\angle1=m\angle4[/tex]
Step 2:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 8x-102=2x+6 \\ 6x=108 \\ x=18 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Step 3:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m\angle1=8(18)-102 \\ m\angle1=144-102 \\ m\angle1=42 \\ Now, \\ m\angle1+m\angle2=180 \\ 42+m\angle2=180 \\ m\angle2=180-42 \\ m\angle2=138 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Answer:
Measure of angle 2 equals 138.
