Find the value of x that makes m || n.
(2x + 5)°
135°
Type your answer...
m
n

Answer 1

65 degrees

Explanation:

corresponding angles:

2x+5 = 135

2x = 135-5

x = 130/2

x = 65 degrees

Answer 2

x = 65

Explanation:

If m and n were parallel , then

(2x + 5)° and 135° are corresponding angles and are congruent , then

2x + 5 = 135 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2x = 130 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 65

For m || n then x = 65
