Answer:
[tex]x = 75[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment
Required
The value of x that makes l and m parallel
Let the angles be ABC (See attachment 2)
[tex]\angle CAB[/tex] is corresponding to 50 degrees. So:
[tex]\angle CAB=50[/tex]
[tex]\angle ABC[/tex] is corresponding to 55 degrees. So:
[tex]\angle ABC = 55[/tex]
This means that:
[tex]\angle ABC + \angle CAB + x = 180[/tex]
[tex]50 +55 + x = 180[/tex]
Solve for x
[tex]x = 180 - 50 - 55[/tex]
[tex]x = 75[/tex]
