Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the sum of alternate interior angles = 180 degree
(2x + 18) + (3x - 7) = 180
2x +18+3x - 7 = 180
5x + 11 = 180
5x = 169
x = 169/5
= 33.8
thus the two angles are
2x + 18 = 85.6 degree
3x -7 = 94.4 degree

We know that alternate interior angles are equal
Hence
2x + 18 = 3x – 7
2x – 3x = – 7 – 18
– x = – 25
x = 25
Therefore,
First angle = 2x + 18 = 50 + 18 = 68°
Second angle = 3x – 7 = 75 – 7 = 68°
