Answer:

13

Explanation:

Angles ( 12x - 29 ) and ( 4x + 1 ) are co - interior angles.

Sum of co - interior angles are supplementary.

12x - 29 + 4x + 1 = 180

12x + 4x - 29 + 1 = 180

16x - 28 = 180

16x = 180 + 28

16x = 208

x = 208 / 16

x = 13

Answer:

x = 13

Explanation:

The 2 angles same- side interior angles and sum to 180°

Then the equation to use to find x is

12x - 29 + 4x + 1 = 180

16x - 28 = 180 ( add 28 to both sides )

16x = 208 ( divide both sides by 16 )

x = 13
