  1. Alternate Interior Angles Theorem: m/1=2x+10m/_{1} = 2x + 10 and m/2=3x+30m/_{2} = 3x + 30 are alternate interior angles, if lines aa and bb are parallel, then m/1=m/2m/_{1} = m/_{2}.
  2. Set Equations Equal: Set the expressions for m/1m/_{1} and m/2m/_{2} equal to each other to solve for xx.2x+10=3x+302x + 10 = 3x + 30
  3. Subtract 2x2x: Subtract 2x2x from both sides to get xx on one side.\newline10=x+3010 = x + 30
  4. Subtract 3030: Subtract 3030 from both sides to solve for xx.\newline20=x-20 = x
