Find the measure of two vertical angles if they measure 90 + 2y and 7y + 9.
The answer is 122.4°. Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! That information only means that 90+2y=7y+9, because two vertical angles are congruent. Solve for y. The value of y IS NOT 122.4. But knowing the expression of either angle, USE y to find either angle. Is this 122.4?
