The bars of a xylophone are parallel and the stand that holds the bars together are transversals, as shown.
A xylophone is shown. The bars of the xylophone are parallel to each other and the two legs of the frame of the xylophone are the transversals. The angle made by the second bar and the frame is x. The angle made by the third bar and the transversal is y, such that x and y are interior angles on the same side of the parallel bars cut by the frame as the transversal.
Which statement is correct about angles x and y?

1-m

Question

The bars of a xylophone are parallel and the stand that holds the bars together are transversals, as shown.
A xylophone is shown. The bars of the xylophone are parallel to each other and the two legs of the frame of the xylophone are the transversals. The angle made by the second bar and the frame is x. The angle made by the third bar and the transversal is y, such that x and y are interior angles on the same side of the parallel bars cut by the frame as the transversal.
Which statement is correct about angles x and y?

1-m<x = 2(m<7)
2-m<x=m<y
3-m<x+m<y=180
4-m<x+m<y= 90

phi · Answer

I think they want you to know about what angles are what with parallel lines and a transversal See http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/parallel-lines.html

anonymous · Answer

@Phi wait...... So would they be Alternate Interior Angles ?

phi · Answer

Click on consecutive Interior Angles (bottom of the list) under Parallel Lines section http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/consecutive-interior-angles.html
