Step-by-step explanation:
5x°=2x°+12°
5x°-2x°=12°
3x°=12°
x=12°/3°
x=4°

Answer:
The value of x is 4°.
Step-by-step explanation:
- According to Corresponding Angle Theorem , if two lines are parallel to each other and there is a transversal line to the Parallel lines, then the Corresponding Angles are equal.
- In the above figure, line m and n are parallel to each other and t is the Transversal.
- Then, 2 is corresponding to 6. Angle 2=Angle 6
- 3 is corresponding to 7. Angle 3=Angle 7
- 1 is corresponding to 5. Angle 1=Angle 5
- 4 is corresponding to 8. Angle 4=Angle 8
- In the given question, the Corresponding Angles are (5x)° and (2x+12)°.
- We know that Corresponding Angles are equal, so (5x)°=(2x+12)°
- (5x)°-(2x)°=12° (bringing 2x° to the left hand side of the equation)
- (3x)°=12°
- x=12°/3
- x=4°
The value of x is found to be 4°.
