Parallel Lines Cut by a Transversal Finding the Value of X

In the figure given below, let the lines l₁ and l₂ be parallel and t is transversal. To find the value of x, which of the following is the first step ?

• (3x + 20)° - 2x° = 180°

• (3x + 20)° = 2x°

• (3x + 20)° + 2x° = 180°

• (3x + 20)° + 2x° = 360°
