Question

On the map below, all numbered streets run parallel to each other. Both 3rd and 4th streets are intersected by King Avenue.

A delivery driver is driving around town and has noticed that every time he turns, it creates an angle. What are the measures of Angles X, Y, and Z on the map?

In your answer, give the measures of angles X, Y, and Z, and explain how you calculated each one.

Answer 1

x=105, y=75 and z=105.....this is a map of parallellines and a transversal. ....angles x and 75 are supplementary angles x=180-75 ×=105...angles y and 75 are corresponding angles so, y=75..angles x and z are alternate exterior angles z=x
