as Sides are equal so ,

6x+1= 9x-23 (corresponding angles)

3x= 24

x= 8

\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}

☆ Let name the triangle as JKL and let MN be the intersecting line meets JK at M and KL at N.

Now,

Given that

In triangle JKL,

  • KM = MJ

i.e. M is the midpoint of KJ.

  • NK = NL

i.e. N is the midpoint of KL.

And

  • ∠KMN = (6x + 1)°

  • ∠KJL = (9x - 23)°

We know,

Midpoint Theorem

It states that

Line segment joining the mid-points of two sides of a triangle is parallel to third side and equals to half of it.

So,

According to statement,

  • M is the midpoint of KJ

  • N is the midpoint of KL.

Hence,

By midpoint theorem,

\rm :\longmapsto\:JL \:  \parallel \: MN

\rm :\longmapsto\: \angle \: KJL \:  =  \:  \angle \: KMN \:  \:  \:  \{corresponding \: angles \}

0

\rm :\longmapsto\:9x - 23 = 6x + 1

\rm :\longmapsto\:9x - 6x= 23 + 1

\rm :\longmapsto\:3x= 24

\bf\implies \:x = 8

Additional Information :-

Converse of Midpoint theorem :-

If a line is drawn through the midpoint of one side of a triangle parallel to other side, it bisects the third side.
