Given:


m\angle ABC=65^\circ


m\angle BCD=105^\circ

To find:

Whether it is possible that Line AB intersects line CD​.

Solution:

We have,


m\angle ABC=65^\circ


m\angle BCD=105^\circ

The angles
m\angle ABC and
m\angle BCD are same sided interior angles.

If two lines are parallel and a transversal line intersect them, then the same sided interior angles are supplementary angles and their sum is 180 degrees.


m\angle ABC+m\angle BCD=65^\circ+105^\circ


m\angle ABC+m\angle BCD=170^\circ


m\angle ABC+m\angle BCD\\eq 180^\circ

So, the lines AB and CD are not parallel to each other.

Therefore, the intersection of lines AB and CD is possible.
