Answer:

Option C. m∠8=70°

Explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the measure of angle 5

we know that

m∠5=110° -----> by corresponding angles

step 2

Find the measure of angle 8

we know that

m∠8+m∠5=180° -----> by supplementary angles (form a linear pair)

we have

m∠5=110°

substitute

m∠8+110°=180°

m∠8=180°-110°=70°

Lines a and b are parallel. What is the measure of <8 if <1 measures 110 A)35 B-example-1
