Interior angle of l1 and l2 is same and equal to 2x.

Also 2x+4y = 180 which implies x+2y =90.

Hope this is correct.. +1 Kudos if correct

Alternate angles are same; so 4y + 2x = 180

x + 2y = 90

The shown angles are such that they are supplementary. (Vertically opposite angle of 2x will also have a value of 2x. That angle + 4y = 180). Or Corresponding angle of 4y will make a supplementary pair with 2x)

2x+4y = 180

x+2y =90

Option A is the answer.
