Question

Below are two parallel lines with a third line intersecting them.

Answer 1

`88 \: \: degrees`

Explanation:

`x + 92 = 180 \\ x = 180 - 92 \\ x = 88 \: \: degrees`

Answer 2

x = 88

Explanation:

These angles are same side exterior angles, and when the lines are parallel, same side exterior angles are supplementary

x + 92 =180

Subtract 92 from each side

x+92-92=180-92

x =88
