The value of the measure of angle TVZ shown in the diagram is 95° (None of the option)

How to calculate the measure of angle TVZ ?

First, we shall determine the value of x in the diagram (see attached photo)

  • ∠RVW = 2x + 15
  • ∠WVZ = 2x + 5
  • Value of x =?

∠RVW + ∠WVZ = 180 (angle on straight line)

2x + 15 + 2x + 5 = 180

4x + 20 = 180

4x = 180 - 20

4x = 160

x = 160 / 4

x = 40

Finally, we can determine the measure of angle TVZ. Details below:

∠TVZ = ∠RVW (vertiaclly opposite)

∠TVZ = 2x + 15

But,

x = 40

Thus,

∠TVZ = 2(40) + 15

∠TVZ = 80 + 15

∠TVZ = 95°

Thus, none of the options given is correct
