MCQ
Find $x;$ if $\angle1=5\text{x}+15^\circ$ and $\angle2=28\text{x},$ angles form linear pair.
  • A
    $40^\circ$
  • B
    $140^\circ $
  • $5^\circ $
  • D
    $20^\circ $

Answer

Correct option: C.
$5^\circ $

 $\angle1+\angle2=180^\circ$ (Linear pair)
$\Rightarrow5\text{x}+15^\circ+28\text{x}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow33\text{x}=180^\circ-15=165^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{165^\circ}{33}=5^\circ$
