Those are lines m and l, right? Also, by // you mean parallel?

mathstudent55 · Answer

If what I asked above is yes, then the angle below the 105 deg angles measures 180 - 105 = 75 deg

anonymous · Answer

The lines are m and a cursive e, and the E//m is supposed to be 2 straight lines, so yes I think its supposed to be parallel

mathstudent55 · Answer

For lines m and l to be parallel, the angle measuring 75 and the angle measuring 3x - 18 must be congruent (equal measure), so solve the equation:
3x - 18 = 75

By the size of the cursive letter, I think it's supposed to be a small case L. They use a cursive letter on purpose so it won't look like a one, 1. It's not a small "e".
