Given, line l and line m are parallel. If m∠1 = 60°, and m∠2 = 125°, what is m∠3?


95°
105°
115°
125°

Answer 2

Answer 3

Since the measure of angle 2 is 125, that means 125 + the angle next to it equals 180

Answer 4

So what would x be since 125 + x = 180

Answer 5

55 but its not a choice

Answer 6

That's ok, it's because that's just not the answer

Answer 7

The answer we want is the measure of angle 3

Answer 8

so now the triangle looks like this:

Answer 9

The internal angles of a triangle add up to 180

Answer 10

So now 60 + 55 + x = 180

Answer 11

So with this information, what would be the remaining angle of the inside of the triangle

Answer 12

idk

Answer 13

The angle on top is 60, the one to the left is 55, so the last angle is 180 - 60 - 55

Answer 14

65

Answer 15

We can finally solve for angle 3 with this

Answer 16

So the answer, angle 3, is x in: 180 = 65 + x

Answer 17

so in this problem you would move the 65 to the other side by subtracting and get x = 115
