Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ∆1 = 26x-7° and ∆5= 20x+17°

objective : Find the value of x.

:- ∆1 = ∆5 (because equal corresponding angles of a line makes the line parallel)

:- 26x-7 = 20x+17

:- 26x-20x=17+7

:- 6x = 24

:- x = 24/6

:- x= 4 ,option (b)

Answer 2

Lines m and n are cut by a transversal.

∠1 and ∠5 are corresponding angles.

∠1 = (26x-7)°

∠5 = (20x+17)°

As the corresponding angles of two parallel lines are equal, we can say-

∠1 = ∠5

or, 26x-7 = 20x+17

or, 26x-20x = 17+7

or, 6x = 24

or, x = 24/6

or, x = 4

So, the value of x is 4.

Hence, the correct option is (b) 4.
