Answer:

x=54

Explanation:

these two angles are supplementary to each other. this is because alternate interior angles are congruent, and 2x+42 degrees is supplementary to the alternate interior angle of x-24 degrees. so, we can add these two numbers up and set it equal to 180.

2x+42+x-24=180

3x+18=180

3x=162

x=54

if this question is asking for x, 54 is the answer. if it is asking for the angle measures, plug in 54 for x for each angle and solve.
