Answer: x = 115, z = 27
Step-by-Step Solution:
We know, Adjacent or Consecutive Interior Angles are Supplementary and Alternate Interior Angles are Equal.
So,
=> x + 65 = 180 (Adjacent interior angles)
=> 3z + 34 = x (Alternate interior angles)
First solve Equation 1 :-
x + 65 = 180
x = 180 - 65
=> x = 115
Therefore, x = 115.
Now we got the value of ‘x’. Substitute this value in Equation 2 to find the value of ‘z’ hence completing our answer.
Substitute value of ‘x’ in Equation 2 :-
3z + 34 = x
3z + 34 = (115)
3z = 115 - 34
3z = 81
z = 81/3
=> z = 27
Therefore, z = 27.
Now we have the required answers.
Hence, x = 115 and z = 27.
