Given:

lines a and b are parallel.

So, the alternative angles are congruent

So, the measure of the angle that is supplementary with x = 120

the supplementary angles have a sum of 180

so, we can write the following equation:


\begin{gathered} x+120=180 \\ x=180-120 \\ x=60 \end{gathered}

So, the answer will be: 60 deg
