Answer:
x = 25
∠A = 148°
Explanation:
the lines are parallel lines, meaning that there are alternate angles next to ∠A and ∠B. since the line is straight, the sum of the alternate angle as well as ∠A 180°. this is also true for ∠B, so we know that ∠A and ∠B are equal.
6x - 2 = 4x + 48
(add 2 to both sides) 6x = 4x + 50
therefore, 2x = 50 and x = 25.
now, we can find ∠A by substituting 25 into the equation:
6x - 2
= 150 - 2
= 148°
i hope this helps! :D
