(13x - 23)°
(9x + 3)°
a) 129°
b) 131°
c) 134°
d) 138°
e) 141°

Explanation:

Answer:

Since \(NP\perp LM\), then \(\angle LNP = 90^{\circ}\). So, \((13x - 23)+(9x + 3)=90\).
Combining like - terms gives \(22x-20 = 90\).
Adding 20 to both sides: \(22x=110\), then \(x = 5\).
\(\angle JNM=\angle LNK\) (vertical angles).
\(\angle LNK=(13x - 23)+(9x + 3)\).
Substitute \(x = 5\) into the expression: \(\angle LNK=(13\times5 - 23)+(9\times5 + 3)=(65 - 23)+(45 + 3)=42 + 48=90+(42)=132\) (This is wrong above, let's correct).

Since \(NP\perp LM\), \(\angle LNP = 90^{\circ}\).
We know that \(\angle JNL\) and \(\angle KNP\) are vertical angles.
\(\angle JNL=13x - 23\) and \(\angle KNP=9x + 3\)
Since \(\angle LNP = 90^{\circ}\), we have \((13x - 23)+(9x + 3)=90\)
\(22x-20 = 90\), \(22x=110\), \(x = 5\)
\(\angle JNM = 180-(9x + 3)\)
Substitute \(x = 5\) into the expression: \(\angle JNM=180-(9\times5 + 3)=180-(45 + 3)=180 - 48=132\) (Wrong again).

Since \(NP\perp LM\), \(\angle LNP = 90^{\circ}\)
\(\angle JNL+\angle LNP+\angle PNK = 180^{\circ}\) (a straight - line angle)
We know that \(\angle JNL = 13x-23\) and \(\angle PNK=9x + 3\)
\(\angle JNL+\angle PNK = 90^{\circ}\) (because \(\angle LNP = 90^{\circ}\))
\(13x-23+9x + 3=90\)
\(22x-20 = 90\)
\(22x=110\)
\(x = 5\)
\(\angle JNM=180-(9x + 3)\)
Substitute \(x = 5\) into it: \(\angle JNM=180-(9\times5+3)=180 - 48=132\) (Wrong)

Since \(NP\perp LM\), \(\angle LNP=90^{\circ}\)
\(\angle JNL+\angle PNK = 90^{\circ}\) (linear - pair with \(\angle LNP\))
\(13x-23 + 9x+3=90\)
\(22x-20 = 90\)
\(22x=110\)
\(x = 5\)
\(\angle JNM = 180-(9x + 3)\)
Substitute \(x = 5\)
\(\angle JNM=180-(9\times5 + 3)=180-48 = 132\) (Wrong)

Since \(NP\perp LM\), \(\angle LNP = 90^{\circ}\)
\(\angle JNL+\angle PNK=90^{\circ}\)
