Answer:

x=-4

Explanation:

The 2 angles shown are equal either because they are vertically opposite, corresponding angles or alternate angles. I'm not sure which one it is.

x+54=50

Subtract 54 from both sides:

x+54-54=50-54

Simplify to get final answer:

x=-4

Answer: x=-4

Explanation:

Since the lines are parallel they have the same angle so you can set them equal to each other.

x+54=50

x=50-54

x=-4
