What is the measure of angle x? A pair of parallel lines is cut by a transversal. An exterior angle on the left of the transversal is labeled as 50 degrees. An interior angle on the right of the transversal, which is not vertically opposite to the 50 degree angle, is labeled as x. 100 degrees 130 degrees 135 degrees 150 degrees

The sum of consecutive interior angles is 180. Also called same side interior angles.

If the 50 degree exterior angle is brought interior by vertical angle thm and it becomes same side interior to x, then x is 130 degrees.
