QUESTION 2

First Street and Second Street run parallel to each other and both are one-way streets. First Street runs West, Second Street runs East. The city is planning to build a new road, also one way, that runs NE and cuts through both First Street and Second Street at an angle. Traffic turning off of Second Street will have to make a 53° turn onto the new road (see angle f). What angle would traffic turning off of First Street have to make turning onto the new road(See angle a)? Provide your answer and the step-by-step process you used to find it!

Answer 1

127°

Explanation:

Angles f and d are supplementary because they are consecutive interior angles. This means that d is 123°.

a and d are vertical angles, which are congruent, meaning angle a is 127°.
