Answer:

  • x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding angles must be same to make the lines m and n parallel.

  • 2x + 15 = 135
  • 2x = 120
  • x = 60

Answer:

x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First of all, we must know that these angles are corresponding. That means they're congruent in angle measures.

2. Given the information above, 2x + 15 = 135.

3. (Solving)

Step 1: Subtract 15 from both sides.

  • [tex]2x + 15 - 15 = 135 - 15[/tex]
  • [tex]2x = 120[/tex]

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

  • [tex]\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{120}{2}[/tex]
  • [tex]x = 60[/tex]

Step 3: Check if solution is correct.

  • [tex]2(60)+15=135[/tex]
  • [tex]120 + 15 = 135[/tex]
  • [tex]135 = 135[/tex]

Therefore, x = 60.
