Let x = degree measure of angle I
\n" ); document.write( "so x/5 = degree measure of angle K
\n" ); document.write( "Since they form a linear pair, their sum is 180 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+%2B+x%2F5+=+180\"$ , multiply both sides by 5
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5x+%2B+x+=+900\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x+=+900\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+150\"$ and $\"x%2F5+=+30\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer: Angle I measures 150 degrees and Angle K measures 30 degrees. \n" ); document.write( "
