Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

A. The angles 7 & 8 are vertically oppostie angles (V.O.A) & since they share the same vertex caused by the intersection of lines C & D, they'll have the same angle too.

B. Special angles caused by the intersection of lines C & D will have the same value as they are V.O.As & share the same vertex. Hence, to solve for y, the equation will be =》 5y - 29 = 3y + 19

C. Solving for y,

5y - 29 = 3y + 19

5y - 3y = 19 + 29

2y = 48

y = 48/2

y = 24

Since, angle 7 & 5y - 29 are linear pairs,

angle 7 = 180 - (5(24) - 29)

angle 7 = 180 - (120 - 29)

angle 7 = 180 - 91

angle 7 = 89°

Similarly, angle 8 & 3y + 19 are linear pairs,

angle 8 = 180 - (3(24) + 19)

angle 8 = 180 - (72 + 19)

angle 8 = 180 - (91)

angle 8 = 89°

•°• Hence, we also proved that angle 8 & 7 are V.O.As.
