Given:

The angles formed between the transversal and two parallel lines are


\begin{gathered} (6x-100)\degree \\ (2x+4)\degree \end{gathered}

The objective is to find the value of x.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the property of corresponding angles, the angles formed between transversal and parallel lines on the same side will be equal.

To find x:

On equating the two angles, the value of x can be calculated as,


6x-100=2x+4

On further equating the above equation,


\begin{gathered} 6x-2x=4+100 \\ 4x=104 \\ x=(104)/(4) \\ x=26 \end{gathered}

Hence, the value of x is 26.
