Answer:

m<h = 100 deg

Explanation:

Draw a segment connecting the two parallel lines. Draw that segment near the parallel line symbols (the small arrowheads). Now you have a pentagon. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a pentagon is

(n - 2)180 = (5 - 2)180 = 3(180) = 540

The angles the new segment makes with the parallel lines are same-side interior angles of parallel lines cut by a transversal, so they are supplementary. Their measures add up to 180 deg.

180 + 98+ 162 + h = 540

h + 440 = 540

h = 100
