Question

given m||n, find the value of x.
answer attempt 1 out of 2
x =

Explanation:

Step1: Use the property of consecutive interior angles

When two parallel lines \(m\parallel n\) are cut by a transversal \(t\), consecutive interior angles are supplementary. That is \(x + 139=180\).

Step2: Solve for \(x\)

Subtract \(139\) from both sides of the equation \(x + 139=180\). So \(x=180 - 139\).

Answer:

\(41\)
