The angle 3 and angle 7 are corresponding angle. So,


\angle3=\angle7

Subtitute the measure of angles and obtain the value of x.


\begin{gathered} x+50=2x+20 \\ 2x-x=50-20 \\ x=30 \end{gathered}

Determine the measure of angle 3.


\begin{gathered} \angle3=20+50 \\ =70 \end{gathered}

So measure of angle
