Math Problem Statement

Find the value of x in a diagram with two intersecting lines, where one angle is 50° and the other is marked as x°.

Solution

To find xx, let's analyze the given diagram:

  1. The angle marked 5050^\circ is vertically opposite to the unknown angle xx.
  2. In geometry, vertically opposite angles are equal. This means: x=50x = 50^\circ

Thus, the value of xx is: x=50x = 50^\circ
