Question

Two lines intersect parallel lines m and n as shown. What is the value of x? A)24 B) 48 C)60 D) 66

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 60

Step-by-step explanation:

48+72=120

x=180-120

x=60

Answer 2

The value of x from the given diagram is 60 degrees

The sum of the interior angle of a triangle is 180 degrees. Since the two lines intersect parallel lines m and n, then;

• m<3 = 48 degrees (alternate interior angle)

Taking the sum of angle in the triangle;

m<3 + x + 72 = 180

48 + x + 72 = 180

120 + x = 180

x = 180 - 120

x = 60 degrees

Hence the value of x from the given diagram is 60 degrees
