5. Find the value of x so that lines s and t are parallel. (7x - 20)° (4x + 16)
1 answer:
The value of x so that lines s and t are parallel is 12
<h3 /><h3>How to find angles involving parallel lines?</h3>The angle are alternate exterior angles.
Therefore, alternate exterior angle theorem states that when two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then the exterior angles formed on either side of the transversal are equal.
Hence,
7x - 20 = 4x + 16
7x - 4x= 16 + 20
3x = 36
x = 36 / 3
x = 12
Therefore, the value of x is 12.
