d) Recall that by the exterior angle theorem we know that:

[tex]a+b=d\text{.}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]5x+10+6x+2=12x\text{.}[/tex]

Adding like terms we get:

[tex]11x+12=12x\text{.}[/tex]

Subtracting 11x from both sides of the equation we get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 11x+12-11x=12x-11x, \\ 12=12x-11x, \\ x=12. \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, we get that:

[tex]d=12x=12(12)=144.[/tex]

Recall that c and d are a linear pair, meaning:

[tex]\measuredangle c+\measuredangle d=180^{\circ}.[/tex]

Substituting d= 180 degrees and solving for angle c we get:

[tex]\measuredangle c=180^{\circ}-144^{\circ}=36^{\circ}.[/tex]

Answer part d):

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=12, \\ \measuredangle c=36^{\circ}. \end{gathered}[/tex]

c) To solve this question we will use the fact that the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees, and that h and i are a linear pair.

Since the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees, then:

[tex]\measuredangle k+\measuredangle j+\measuredangle h=180^{\circ}.[/tex]

Solving the above equation for angle h we get:

[tex]\measuredangle h=180^{\circ}-\measuredangle j-\measuredangle k.[/tex]

Substituting ∡j=42°, ∡k=50° we get:

[tex]\measuredangle h=88^{\circ}.[/tex]

Now, since angles h and i are a linear pair, then:

[tex]\measuredangle h+\measuredangle i=180^{\circ}.[/tex]

Solving for angle i we get:

[tex]\measuredangle i=180^{\circ}-\measuredangle h=180^{\circ}-88^{\circ}=92^{\circ}.^{}[/tex]

Finally, we know that:

[tex]\measuredangle i+\measuredangle n+\measuredangle m=180^{\circ}.[/tex]

Substituting the measures of angles i, and n, and solving for m we get:

[tex]\measuredangle m=180^{\circ}-92^{\circ}-33^{\circ}=55^{\circ}.^{}[/tex]
