PLease
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a transversal rule is |dw:1340430217290:dw| they are all equal
OpenStudy (anonymous):
These are corresponding angles therefore, you can set them equal because they're congruent.
x + 5 = 75
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yup. Corresponding angles are equal!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
75 degrees?
or
70 degrees?

x = 70º
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x + 5 = 75
x = 75 - 5
OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):
x= 70, but both angles are 75
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thank you
so it must be the grading score is wrong
OpenStudy (anonymous):
70 degrees is my answer and it saying that its wrong..

Based on the question, that should be the answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Well... actually x wouldn't have a unit. That's the only minor thing that I can think of making your answer wrong.
If you had these two choices:
70 degrees
70
the second one would be a more correct answer.
