In the diagram, MQ//RS, < TUV = 70^o and < RLV = 30^o. Find the value of x

150^o

110^o

100^o

95^o

Correct answer is C

L + 30^o - 180^o(Sum of < s on straight line)

L = 180^o - 30^o = 150^o

L = q = 150^o(opposite < s are equal)

y = b = 30^o(alt. < s)

b + c = 180^o(sum of < s on str. line)

30^o + c 180

c = 180 - 30

c = 150^o

b = a = 30^o (opp < s are equal)

c = d = 150^o (opp < s are equal)

a + k + 70^o = 180^o (sum of < s on \(\bigtriangleup\))

30^o + k + 70^o = 180

k + 100^o = 180

k = 180 - 100

k = 80^o

x + 80^o = 180(sum of < s on straight line)

x = 180^o - 80^o

x = 100^o
