### Understanding Angle Relationships

#### Task:
Using the diagram below, identify the relationship between the given angles and then find the value of \( x \) that makes \( m \parallel n \).

#### Diagram Explanation:
In the diagram, two lines \( m \) and \( n \) are shown. There is a transversal line intersecting \( m \) and \( n \) forming the following angles:
- Angle labeled \( (2x - 95)^\circ \)
- Angle labeled \( x^\circ \)

These angles are positioned such that their relationship can determine whether lines \( m \) and \( n \) are parallel.

### Problem:
- **Given Angles:** Identify the angles and their relationship.
- **Calculate \( x \):** Find the value of \( x \) that makes \( m \parallel n \).

#### Calculation: 
Explain the steps to find the relationship and the specific value of \( x \) ensuring \( m \parallel n \).

1. **Identify Angles:**
   - \( (2x - 95)^\circ \)
   - \( x^\circ \)

2. **Relationship Exploration:**
   - To satisfy the condition \( m \parallel n \), corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, or other angle relationships that guarantee parallel lines need to be identified and equated.
   
3. **Solving for \( x \):**
   - Use the appropriate angle relationship to set up an equation.
   - Solve the equation to find the value of \( x \).

### Example Calculation:
Consider that for \( m \parallel n \), the following relationship might hold for alternate interior angles or corresponding angles:
   - \( (2x - 95)^\circ = x^\circ \)
   - Solve for \( x \).

\[ 2x - 95 = x \]
\[ 2x - x = 95 \]
\[ x = 95 \]

Therefore, if \(  x = 95 \), then \( m \parallel n \).

### Conclusion:
After solving, input your answer:

**The given angles are** [Fill in relationship type, e.g., alternate interior angles, corresponding angles, etc.]

**\( x \) =** [Answer]

### Interactive Element:
- Dropdown or input box for users to input the value of \( x \).
