Answer:

x = 21

Explanation:

2x+78 = 5x+15,

because corresponding angles will allow (2x+78) to move diagonally from 5x+15.

from built geometry knowledge,

angles diagonal from one another equal,

because (example) the angle above it would be 180-(2x+78),

then 5x+15 = 180 - [180-(2x+78)], which would ultimately be 5x+15 = 2x+78.

so, 2x+78 = 5x+15

78-15 = 5x-2x

63 = 3x

21 = x
