Co-interior angles must add up to 180

x-5+2x+14=180

Gather like terms

3x+9=180

Move 9 to the other side as a negative number

3x=171

Divide both sides by 3

x= 57

Answer:

x = 57

Step-by-step explanation:

  • x - 5 and 2x + 14 are angles on the same side of the transversal between two parallel lines
  • They are supplementary [add up to 180°]
  • x - 5 + 2x + 14 = 180
  • 3x + 9 = 180
  • 3x = 171
  • x = 57
