Problem

Lines ll and mm are parallel and are intersected by a transversal tt. At the point where tt meets ll, the acute angle lying inside the region between ll and mm measures (4x+15)∘(4x + 15)^{\circ}. At the point where tt meets mm, the alternate interior angle on the same side of the transversal measures (7x−9)∘(7x - 9)^{\circ}. a. (i) Find the value of xx. b. (ii) Using this value of xx, determine the measure of each of the eight angles formed by tt with the two parallel lines. For every angle calculated, clearly state the angle–pair relationship you have applied.
