Question

(SAT Prep) In the given figure, a║b. What is the value of x? A. 70° B. 45° C. 80° D. 65° I NEED THIS FAST PLZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

The value of x in the given figure is 53°.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x in the given figure, we can use the fact that a║b. This means that the angles formed by the transversal line are congruent. Since the angle labeled 53° is opposite to the angle we want to find, x, we know that x is also equal to 53°. Therefore, the answer is 53° (Choice D).

Answer 2

70

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find the vertical of x. To the right of the vertical, we see that there is an angle of 25 (since the 25 up top corresponds to that blank angle). Once you add 25 + 85 + x = 180 (since this is a straight line), we see that x is 70, and its vertical is also 70.
