Answer:

Explanation:

here 120 degrees would be the same as 15(x+2)

Just like how angle R on the other side of 120 Degrees is the same

so 15(x+2) = 120 degrees

let us distribute

15x +30 = 120

-30 -30

15x=90

15x/15=90 /15

x=6

so what you have selected is correct

Answer:

x = 6

Explanation:

When parallel lines are intersected by a transversal

alternate exterior angles are congruent

Therefor

15(x + 2) = 120

Divide both sides by 15

x + 2 = 8

Subtract 2 from both sides

x = 6
