To find the value of x, we need to use the property that corresponding angles formed by a transversal cutting parallel lines are congruent.
So, we can set the two corresponding angles equal to each other:
2x - 29 = 7x + 2
Now, we can solve for x:
5x = -27
x = -27/5
Therefore, the value of x is -27/5.

thats not right bot
Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct the solution.
Given that m is parallel to n, we can conclude that the corresponding angles formed by the transversal are congruent.
Thus, we have the equation:
(2x - 29)° = (7x + 2)°
Now, we can solve for x:
2x - 29 = 7x + 2
-5x = 31
x = -31/5
Therefore, the value of x is -31/5.
Given that m is parallel to n, we can conclude that the corresponding angles formed by the transversal are congruent.
Thus, we have the equation:
(2x - 29)° = (7x + 2)°
Now, we can solve for x:
2x - 29 = 7x + 2
-5x = 31
x = -31/5
Therefore, the value of x is -31/5.
