gorv · Answer

as we can see these lines are parallel

gorv · Answer

and interior angles of parallel lines (lines cut by a transversal line ) are sum upto 180 degree alwys (rule of parallel line)

gorv · Answer

2x-y+60=180
2x-y=120
in other same rule will be applicable
2x+y+40=180
2x+y=140
now solve these 2 equations

anonymous · Answer

i dont understand that cause i plug in the x and y of all 4 options and none of them add to 180

anonymous · Answer

in the first equiation anyways i havnt tried the second

anonymous · Answer
