Which equation can you use to solve for x?
A. 180-x=111
B. x+87=180
C. x+111=180
D. x+87=111

Answer:
[tex]111^{\circ} =87^{\circ}+x^{\circ}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer the attached figure
Vertical angles : Each of the pairs of opposite angles made by two intersecting lines is called vertical angles.
AB and CD are two intersecting lines at point O.
So, By definition ∠AOC and ∠DOB are the pair of vertical angles .
So, ∠AOC = ∠DOB (vertically opposite angles are equal) -1
We are given ∠AOC = 111° and ∠DOB = 87°+x°
Substitute the values in 1
[tex]111^{\circ} =87^{\circ}+x^{\circ}[/tex]
So, an equation can you use to solve for x is [tex]111^{\circ} =87^{\circ}+x^{\circ}[/tex]
So, Option B is correct.
