Which value of X could sow that <2 and <6 are corresponding angle? And why?

On a set of parallel lines cut by a transversal, mz2 = (7x- 5)° and mz6 = (x+ 25)°. Which value of x could show that 22 and 26 are
corresponding angles, and why?
O A.
x = 5; Corresponding angles are congruent.
x = 20; Corresponding angles are congruent.
O C. x- 5; Corresponding angles are supplementary.
O D. x= 20; Corresponding angles are supplementary.
