SOLUTION: line wy and vz interserct at point x. measure of angle wxv = 4s -9 and measure of angle zxy = 2s +17 prove s=13

Question 110392: line wy and vz interserct at point x. measure of angle wxv = 4s -9 and measure of angle zxy = 2s +17 prove s=13
Answer by TP(29) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
From the information given angles WXV and ZXY are opposite angles at the point of intersection X.
Hence these two angles are equal.
So 4s - 9 = 2s + 17
Add 9 to both sides:
4s = 2s + 26
Subtract 2s from both sides:
2s = 26
Divide both sides by 2:
s = 13 QED
