∠A and ∠B are vertical angles. If ∠A=8x+14 and ∠B=2x+50, what is m∠B?

∠B = 62°

Step-by-step explanation:

Because ∠A and ∠B are vertical angles they are equal hence we can write

∠A = ∠B

8x + 14 = 2x + 50

Now we have to solve for x

To do so, subtract 2x on both sides of the equation:

6x + 14 = 50

Now, subtract 14 on both sides of the equation

6x = 36

Now, divide 6 on both sides of the equation

x = 6

To find m∠B you have to you have to plug in x = 6 back into the ∠B equation

∠B = 2(6) + 50

∠B = 62°
