Answer:

x = -4

Explanation:

when two parallel lines are intersected by another line, (called a transversal), angle relationships are formed.

The 90 degree angle (marked by a box), and the angle in question are considered to be "corresponding angles", meaning that they are the same angle.

So, we can set up the equation as so:

90 [the corresponding angle] = x + 94

90 = x + 94

- 94 -94 (this is to get the variable isolated)

-4 = x

so, we know that x= -4

hope this helps! feel free to ask clarifying questions!
