Identify Relationship: Identify the relationship between PQ and RS.Since PQ∥RS, corresponding angles are equal.
Find Equation: Find the equation that relates x with the given angles. Let's say the angles are a and b, then a=b because they are corresponding angles.
Set Up Equation: Set up the equation to solve for x. Assuming we have an angle equation like a=2x+10 and b=3x−5, then 2x+10=3x−5.
Solve for x: Solve for x.2x+10=3x−510+5=3x−2x15=x
