Question

Given that the two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the measure of angle 2 is 50 degrees. Find each of the missing angles.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines m and l are the parallel lines and a line 'n' is a transverse intersecting these lines.

m∠2 = 50°

m∠1 + m∠2 = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

m∠1 = 180° - 50°

m∠1 = 130°

m∠3 = m∠1 = 130° [Vertically opposite angles]

m∠3 + m∠5 = 180° [Consecutive interior angles]

m∠5 = 180° - m∠3

        = 180° - 130°

        = 50°

m∠6 + m∠5 = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

m∠6 = 180° - 50° = 130°
