m∠x = 130º

1) Considering those parallel lines intercepted by a transversal one.

2) Then we can state that x:

x +50º =180º

x= 180 -50º

x=130º

This is because these angles are Consecutive Interior Angles, so they are supplementary (x +50=180º as a consequence of being part of that transversal line that intercepts those parallel ones.

3) then m∠x = 130º
