I solved the question using the condition that ray XV is perpendicular (not parallel) to line LR, as shown in the image.
Answer:
n=31°
Step-by-step explanation:
If ray XV is perpendicular to line LR, then the four angles they form are equal to 90°.
We can see that angles 2 and 3 form a right angle, or:
[tex]m\angle 2 + m\angle 3=90^\circ[/tex]
We are also given that:
[tex]m\angle 2=2n-4[/tex]
[tex]m\angle 3=n+1[/tex]
Substituting (get rid of the units):
[tex]2n-4+n+1=90[/tex]
Joining like terms:
[tex]3n-3=90[/tex]
Adding 3:
[tex]3n=90+3=93[/tex]
Solving:
[tex]n=93/3[/tex]
n=31°
