Answer:

The measure of angle 5 is 68° .

Explanation:

As given

Parallel lines s and t are cut by a transversal r.

m ∠ 1 = 68 °

Definition of Corresponding angle.

Two lines (s and t shown in the diagram) are crossed by another line (Transversal i.e r ): The angles makesin matching corners are called Corresponding Angles.

Thus

∠1 = ∠5

(By using the corresponding angle property.)

∠5 = 68 °

Therefore the measure of angle 5 is 68° .
