I must somehow find the answers to these transverse don't know how, can you help.
### Parallel Lines and Transversals

#### Instructions:
Draw a line to connect each pair of angles to find \( x \) and then to calculate the value. 

#### Diagrams and Equations:

1. **Problem 1:**
    - Diagram Description:
        - There are two parallel lines intersected by a transversal.
        - The top angle on the left (alternate interior angle) is labeled as \( 12x - 11 \).
        - The bottom angle on the right (alternate interior angle) is labeled as \( 8x + 37 \).

2. **Problem 2:**
    - Diagram Description:
        - Two parallel horizontal lines are intersected perpendicularly by a vertical transversal.
        - The angle at the top left is labeled as \( 20x + 4 \).
        - The angle at the bottom left is labeled as \( 15x + 24 \).

3. **Problem 3:**
    - Diagram Description:
        - Two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal.
        - The bottom angle on the left (corresponding angle) is labeled as \( 6x + 3 \).
        - The top angle on the right (corresponding angle) is labeled as \( 2x + 1 \).

### Steps for Solving:

1. **Identify the pairs of corresponding, alternate interior, or alternate exterior angles.** 
2. **Set up an equation based on the properties of parallel lines and transversals (i.e., corresponding angles are equal, alternate interior angles are equal, etc.).**
3. **Solve for \( x \).**
4. **Substitute \( x \) back into the equations to find the angle values.**

#### Example Solution Process for Problem 1:
1. Identify that \( 12x - 11 \) (alternate interior angle) and \( 8x + 37 \) (alternate interior angle) are congruent.
2. Set up the equation:
    \[
    12x - 11 = 8x + 37
    \]
3. Solve for \( x \):
    \[
    12x - 8x = 37 + 11
    \]
    \[
    4x = 48
    \]
    \[
    x = 12
    \]
4. Substitute \( x = 12 \) back into the angle expressions to
