Two angles form a linear pair. The measure of one angle is x and the measure of the other angle is 1.4 times x plus 12∘ . Find the measure of each angle.

70° and 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

If two angles forms a linear pair, this means that the sum of the angles is 180°. If the measure of one angle is x and the measure of the other angle is 1.4 times x plus 12∘

Let A be the first angle = x°

Let B be the second angle = (1.4x+12)°

Since they form a linear pair, then

A+B = 180°

x + 1.4x+12 = 180°

2.4x = 180-12

2.4x = 168

x = 168/2.4

x = 70°

The measure of angle A = 70°

The measure if angle B = 1.4x+12

B = 1.4(70)+12

B = 98+12

B = 110°

The measure of both angles are 70° and 110°
