Question

If l\\m and p is transversal find the value of x​

Answer 1

Answer:

X=21

Explanation:

the sum of interior angles on the same side of transversal is 180

Answer 2

Answer:

let a = (3x +20)°

b = (5x -8)°

Now, we know that m || l and p is transversal.

therefore, a+b =180 (co-int angles)

3x+20+5x-8=180

8x+12=180

8x=168

x=21

Now, put x in a and b

a= 3(21)+20

a=63+20

a=83°

b=5x-8

b=5(21)-8

b=105-8

b=97°
