Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal. One angle formed measures 130°. This angle and another angle, x, form a straight line. Angle x is composed of two smaller angles, one measuring 20°. What is the measure of the other smaller angle? A triangle has angles measuring 55° and 65°. The third angle, x, is formed by two smaller angles, one measuring 30°. What is the measure of the other smaller angle that makes up angle x?
