Answer:

x=66°

Explanation:

Solve for x:

If the two vertical lines are parallel, then the given angles are same side interior angles that are supplementary angles. This means that their values add up to 180°:

∠1+∠2=180°

Substitute known values:


x+114=180

Subtract 114 from both sides to isolate x:


x+114-114=180-114\\\\x=66

The value of x is 66°.

:Done
