parallel lines relay race
does anyone know how to solve these?

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a). Lines 'l' and 'm' are the parallel lines and a transversal line is intersecting these lines.
(9x + 13)° = (12x - 29)° [Alternate interior angles]
9x - 12x = -29 - 13
-3x = -42
x = 14
2). By substituting x = 14 in the box.
(13x + 5)° + (8x - 14)° = 180° [Consecutive interior angles]
21x - 9 = 180
21x = 189
x = 9
3). By placing x = 9 in the box,
(5x + 52)° = (9x - 16)° [Corresponding angles]
5x - 9x = -52 - 16
-4x = -68
x = 17
4). By placing x = 17 in the box,
(10x + 17)° = (12x + 7)° [Alternate exterior angles]
10x - 12x = -17 + 7
-2x = -10
x = 5
