Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding angles formed by two parallel lines and a transversal are congruent.

The indicated angles are corresponding angles, therefore their measures are equal:


x+9=2x-111

Solving for x:


\begin{gathered} x+9-x=2x-x-111 \\ 9=x-111 \\ x=9+111=120 \end{gathered}

Answer:

x = 120º
