Answer:

Angle 3 is congruent to both angle 6 and angle 7.


\measuredangle3=\measuredangle6=\measuredangle7

Answer:

Given the diagram attached;

Angle 3 is congruent to angle 6.


\measuredangle3=\measuredangle6

Reason: Alternate angles are equal.

Secondly, Angle 3 is congruent to angle 2.


\measuredangle3=\measuredangle2

Reason: Vertically opposite angles are equal.

Thirdly, Angle 3 is congruent to angle 7.


\measuredangle3=\measuredangle7

Reason: Corresponding angls are equal.

Therefore, Since we only need angle that are congruent to angle 3 that are on line b. We have;

Angle 3 is congruent to both angle 6 and angle 7.


\measuredangle3=\measuredangle6=\measuredangle7
