By using parallel lines and transversal lines concept we can prove m∠1=m∠5.
Given that, a║b and both the lines are intersected by transversal t.
We need to prove that m∠1=m∠5.
<h3>What is a transversal?</h3>In geometry, a transversal is a line that passes through two lines in the same plane at two distinct points.
m∠1+m∠3= 180° (Linear Pair Theorem)
m∠5+m∠6=180° (Linear Pair Theorem)
m∠1+m∠3=m∠5+m∠6
m∠3=m∠6
m∠1=m∠5 (Subtraction Property of Equality)
Hence, proved. By using parallel lines and transversal lines concept we can prove m∠1=m∠5.

Answer:
A. 23+x=140
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle addition postulate states that the measure of a larger angle formed by two or more smaller angles placed side by side is the the sum of the smaller angles. The angle addition postulate states that if B is in the interior of AOC , then:
m∠AOB + m∠BOC = m∠AOC.
From the image:
∠NOP = ∠NOQ + ∠QOP
∠NOP = 140, ∠NOQ = x, ∠QOP = 23
substituting:
140 = x + 23
x = 140 - 23 = 117
∠NOQ = 117°
