 In the diagram below, we have line AB is parallel to line CD, EF = FG, < BEF = 130 degrees + x degrees, and < AEG = x degrees. Find the value of x.

Since EAG   =x

 

Then EGF  = x   {since  EG is a transversal cutting parallel lines}

 

But since  EF  = FG  then angle FEG  also  = x 

 

So

 

BEF  + FEG  + AEG   =180

 

130 + x  + x +  x  =  180

 

130 + 3x  = 180

 

3x  =  180 - 130

 

3x  = 50

 

x = 50 / 3
