Question

3) Find the value of x that makes m l n.

Answer 1

SOLUTION

From the image provided,

If m is parallel to n, then

$(200-2x)^o=130^o$

From here, we have that

$\begin{gathered} (200-2x)^o=130^o \\ 200-2x=130 \\ 200-130=2x \\ 70=2x \\ 2x=70 \\ x=\frac{70}{2} \\ x=35 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the answer is x = 35
