Question

For what value of y is p parallel to q?​

Answer 1

y = 16

Again, let me know if you don't see how they are supplementary

Explanation:

This looked super overwhelming when I first looked at it. Thankfully it's actually pretty simple.

We want p and q to be parallel and want to deal with y. Well both of those are on n as the transversal, so we can pretend m doesn't exist. The two angles labeled are supplementary to each other, if you cannot tell that let me know, but adding the two together make 180.

So you just need to solve 6y+12+4y+8=180

6y+12+4y+8=180

10y + 20 = 180

10y = 160

y = 16

Again, let me know if you don't see how they are supplementary
