The question, in short

Two parallel lines are cut by a straight line; using the angle x° at the upper crossing and 132° at the lower crossing, find x.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and the diagram.

Solution · 2 marks

  1. 1Corresponding angle at the upper intersection = 132° (parallel lines)
  2. 2x and 132° lie on a straight line: x = 180 − 132
  3. 3x = 48
