Question

If L || M and m<8 =109°, what is m<5?

Answer 1

71°

Step-by-step explanation

Given the angle m<8 = 109°

Since L || M, hence m<6 = m<8 = 109° (Corresponding angle)

Also the sum of m<5 and m<6 are supplementary, hence;

m<5 + m<6 = 180

Substitute m<6 = 109°

m<5 = 180 - m<6

m<5 =180 - 109

m<5 = 71°

Hence the measure of m<5 is 71°
