Find the value of x. The diagram is not to scale. Lines f and g are parallel

Answer:
[tex]x=11[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If lines f and g are parallel
then
[tex](5x)\°+(9x+26)\°=180\°[/tex] -----> by supplementary angles (consecutive interior angles)
Solve for x
[tex]14x=180-26[/tex]
[tex]14x=154[/tex]
[tex]x=11[/tex]
Answer: 11
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that when two lines are parallel and a transversal intersect it , then the adjacent angles form on same side are added up to 180°. (1)
From the given figure , it is given that Lines f and g are parallel .
The pair of adjacent angles formed on same side have measure (5x) and (9x+26)
From (1), we have
[tex]5x+9x+26=180\\\\\Rightarrow\ 14x=180-26\\\\\Rightarrow\ 14x=154\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{154}{14}=11[/tex]
Hence, the value of x= 11.
