40. What is the value of x?
(7x – 8)°
(6x +11°)
Drawing not to scale

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that both of these expressions are equal because of vertically opposite angles. Let's solve.
Hence, the value of x is 19.

Answer:
x= 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall the Vertical Angles Theorem which states that when two lines intersect, vertical angles are congruent. In this case, 7x-8 and 6x +11 are vertical angles, so they are congruent. We can conclude that an equation can be made to find the value of x where:
[tex]7x-8=6x+11[/tex]
Solve out the equation to find the value of x.
[tex]7x-8+8=6x+11+8[/tex]
[tex]7x=6x+19[/tex]
[tex]7x-6x=6x+19-6x[/tex]
[tex]x=19[/tex]
