Answer:

A)   [tex](3x-12)\° + (4x+20)\° = 113\°[/tex]

B)   [tex]x=35[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle addition postulate tells us that the sum of the measures of adjacent angles equals the measure of the larger angle that they form.

Therefore:

  • [tex]m\angle BAC + m\angle CAD = m\angle BAD[/tex]

We can now plug in the given angle measures to solve for x:

[tex](3x-12)\° + (4x+20)\° = 113\°[/tex]

↓ canceling degrees on both sides

[tex]3x-12 + 4x+20 = 113[/tex]

↓ combining like terms

[tex]7x + 8 = 113[/tex]

↓ subtracting 8 from both sides

[tex]7x = 105[/tex]

↓ dividing both sides by 7

[tex]\boxed{x = 35}[/tex]
