Question

In the figure shown, line AB is parallel to line CD.

Explain how you found the measure of angle x by identifying the angle relationships that you used along the transversal.

Answer 1

Part A:

The measurement for angle x is might be 46. I think this is correct because Parallel lines AB and CD are cut by a transversal PR.

Part B:

Look at the angle <PRD = 110. It will be supplementary to the consecutive interior angle <RPB, so it must be 70 Now you have 3 angles that form a straight line at the top. 64 + x + 70 = 180° x = 180 - 134 x = 46°Answer: x = 46

Explanation:

Answer 2

Angle R, which is 120°, is equal to and P=65°+x... 120-65=55, so x=55. I'm not sure if you need more information than that but I'm positive that x=55 is the answer.
