The value of x is 1.

* Let's explain how to solve the problem

- Line PU has points R and S between points P and U

- Line QR intersects line PU at point R

- Line ST intersects line PU at point S

- Lines QR and ST are parallel

- Look to the attached figure

∵ QR // ST

∴ m∠TSU = m∠QRU ⇒ corresponding angles

∵ m∠TSU = 15(x + 2)°

∴ m∠QRU = 15(x + 2)

∵ Points P, R, S lie on the same line

∵ RQ intersects PS at R

∵ m∠PRQ + m∠QRU = 180° ⇒ straight angle

∵ m∠PRQ = 135°

∵ m∠QRU = 15(x + 2)°

∴ 135 + 15(x + 2) = 180

∴ 135 + 15x + 30 = 180

- Add like terms

∴ 15x + 165 = 180

- Subtract 165 from both sides

∴ 15x = 15

- Divide both sides by 15

∴ x = 1

∴ The value of x is 1

In geometry, parallel lines are coplanar instantly traces that do not intersect at any factor. Parallel planes are planes in identical three-dimensional space that in no way meet. Parallel curves are curves that do not touch every different or intersect and hold a set minimal distance

In mathematics, the intersection of or more gadgets is any other item that includes the whole thing that is contained in all the items simultaneously.

How do u do this promble
kupik [55]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The total measures of a circle must add up to 360°.  In the diagram given there are two angles that are not given, however, both of these should be equal to each other.  That means that the sum of the other two angles ('5x - 5' and 93°) must be equal to the other angle of the same measure (138°):

5x - 5 + 93 = 138

Combine like terms: 5x + 88 = 138

Subtract 88 from both sides: 5x + 88 - 88 = 138 - 88 or 5x = 50

Divide by 5:  5x/5 = 50/5 or x = 10
