Question 1026709: One of a pair of vertical angles measures (5x-1) degrees, and the other measures (4x+10) degrees. What is the measure of each of the angles? Answer by macston(5194) (Show Source):

Vertical angles are always equal.
Angle A=5x-1; Angle B=4x+10
.
Angle A=Angle B
5x-1=4x+10 . Subtract 4x from each side.
x-1=10 . Add 1 to each side.
x=11
.
Angle A=5x-1=5(11)-1=55-1=54
Angle B=4x+10=4(11)+10=44+10=54
.
