Question

Hey need. help with this problem on angles if you could please give me a hand

Answer 1

Just set the equations equal to each other bc corresponding angles on parallel lines are congruent

Answer 2

89

Explanation:

They are corresponding angles, so they are congruent(equal)

Because they are equal, you do 10x-1=8x+17

Bring all your variables to one side, so you do 10x=8x+17+1, then put 8x next to 10x, so now you have 10x-8x=17+1

you get 2x=18, so now you divide and get x=9

you plug in 9 to all your equations for x

so you get 89 for the one on the top

and 89 for the other one
