When two angles are adjacent on a straight line, then the sum of the two angles equals 180 (that is sum of angles on a straight line). Therefore;

[tex]\begin{gathered} (2r+20)+130=180 \\ \text{Subtract 130 from both sides and you'll have} \\ 2r+20=50 \\ \text{Subtract 20 from both sides and you'll have} \\ 2r=30 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 2 and you'll have} \\ r=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The measure of r is 15
