Answer:

The definition of alternate interior angles is that those two angles are the same.

Therefore because they are the same you can set them equal to eachother

3x + 24 = 78 is true

3x = 54

x = 18

Just know the definitions, for instance 3 and 4 are the same, 2 and 5 are the same, 1 and 6 are the same
