Answer:

62 degrees

Explanation:

Since lines i and k are parallel, angle b and h are interior angles and are equal to each other. Set up the equation by setting the two equal to each other.

8x-34=5x+2

Subtract 5x from both sides. (it cancels on the right side)

3x-34=2

Add 34 to both sides. (cancels on the left side)

3x=36

Divide both sides by 3.

x=12

Now plug it into either equation since they are equal. I'm gonna use the one for angle h so that it's less confusing.

5(12)+2

60+2

62

The measure of angle h is 62 degrees.
