Question

Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal and two of the same-side interior angles formed have measures of (4x + 3) degrees and (x+2) degrees.

1. How are the angles related?

2. What does x =

3. What are the two angle measures?

Answer 1

Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If two parallel lines cut by a transversal, then the two same-side interior angles  are equal

2.  (4x + 3 )+ (x + 2) = 180

       5x + 5 = 180

      5x = 175

        x = 35

3.    one angle = 4(35) +3 = 143°

      the other angle = 35 + 2 = 37°
