Answer:

The value of x is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two angles are:

(4x + 19) and (7x -29)°

Two angles being congruent means that their numerical values will be equal

Putting both expressions equal

[tex]4x+19 = 7x-29[/tex]

Subtracting 7x from both sides

[tex]4x+19-7x = 7x-29-7x\\-3x+19 = -29[/tex]

subtracting 19 from both sides

[tex]-3x+19-19 = -29-19\\-3x = -48[/tex]

Dividing both sides by -3

[tex]\frac{-3x}{-3} = \frac{-48}{-3}\\x = 16[/tex]

Hence,

The value of x is 16
