Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Because you have a parallelogram, the two angles shown are "same side interior angles" which means they add up to 180°.
We would say that they are supplementary (they add up to 180°)
So add them together and set them equal to 180°
(4x+18) + (8x+30) = 180°
This is all adding, so we dont really need any of these parenthesis.
4x+18+8x+30=180
Add the x terms together and add the constants (plain numbers) together.
12x + 48 = 180
Subtract 48 from both sides of the equation.
12x = 132
Divide both sides by 12
x = 11
