Answers:

  • x = 10
  • angle CAT = 126 degrees
  • angle MUD = 54 degrees

=========================================================

Explanation:

∠CAT and ∠MUD are supplementary, which means the angle measures add to 180. They form a straight line.

( m∠CAT ) + ( m∠MUD ) = 180

( 11x+16 ) + ( 4x+14 ) = 180

11x+16 + 4x+14 = 180

(11x+4x) + (16+14) = 180

15x+30 = 180

15x = 180-30

15x = 150

x = 150/15

x = 10

Let's find each angle based on this x value

  • m∠CAT=11x+16 = 11*10+16 = 110+16 = 126 degrees
  • m∠MUD=4x+14 = 4*10+14 = 40+14 = 54 degrees

Those two angles add to 126+54 = 180 to confirm we do indeed have supplementary angles, and confirm the correct answers.
