QuestionSolve for xx given that angle 4 is 4x64x - 6 and angle 6 is 2x122x - 12.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. Angle four is equal to 4x64x -6 . Angle six is equal to x12x -12
3. Angle four is equal to angle six (since they are not specified as different, we can assume they are equal)

STEP 2

Since angle four is equal to angle six, we can set their expressions equal to each other and solve for xx.
4x6=2x124x -6 =2x -12

STEP 3

To isolate xx, we first subtract 2x2x from both sides of the equation.
x2x=2x2x12+6x -2x =2x -2x -12 +6This simplifies to2x=62x = -6

STEP 4

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by2 to solve for xx.
x=62x = \frac{-6}{2}

STEP 5

Calculate the value of xx.
x=2=3x = \frac{-}{2} = -3The solution is x=3x = -3.
