These angles are known as alternate interior angles. A fact about them is that they are always congruent. Since they are congruent, we can set them equal to each other:

8x-3=5x+42

Let's find the value of x so that we can find what (5x + 42) is:

8x-3=5x+42

8x=5x+45

3x = 45

x = 15

x = 15 so we can plug that in to find the angle:

5(15)+42 = 75+42 = 117

Thus, that angle is equal to 117°.

We see two parallel lines crossed by a transversal.

The two labelled angles are alternate interior angles, hence they are equal.

The equality allows us to equate the two expressions and hence solve for x.

8x-3=5x+42

transpose terms

8x-5x=42+3

solve for x

3x=45

so x=45/3=15.

This means 5x+42=5*15+42=75+42=117 degrees.
