Answer:
C. 70° and 70°
Explanation:
Corresponding angles are angles that are formed when a transversal intersects two parallel lines. They are located on the same side of the transversal in corresponding positions. Corresponding angles are always congruent to each other.
In this case:
(3x + 40)° and (5x + 20)° are corresponding angles.
So, they are equal.
We can write it as:
(3x + 40)° = (5x + 20)°
3x + 40 = 5x + 20
Subtract 20 on both sides.
3x + 40 - 20= 5x + 20 - 20
3x + 20 = 5x
Subtract 3x on both sides.
3x + 20 - 3x = 5x - 3x
20 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2.

x = 10
So,
(3x + 40)° = (3 × 10 + 40)° = (30 + 40)° = 70°
(5x + 20)° = (5 × 10 + 20)° = (50 + 20)° = 70°
Therefore, the answer is:
C. 70° and 70°
