Answer:

139°

Explanation:

Corresponding angles theorem:

When a transversal line intersects two parallel lines, the angles formed from the intersection are congruent in pairs. For example with your problem, using the Corresponding Angles Theorem (one of the few theorems/postulates used to find angles on transversals), the angles are paired on the same place on the first parallel line as they are on the second. Since the corresponding pair of (x)° is given, the angle of x is given. (x)° = 139°

I've provided an image courtesy of tutors.com that will help remember corresponding angles for you.
