Below is a diagram of an airport runway intersection. There are two parallel runways, and a taxiway crosses both runways. If /_8 measures 115, what is the sum of /_1 and /_4?
A ) 230 B ) 115 C ) 65 D ) 130
where is the diagram
@adorablefourfootnine
quick
ok one sec
one sec is over
its 2 minutes
if you can't help me and you got stuff to do that's fine ..
no I was just joking sorry if u felt bad
oooh okay I didn't know, but here's the caption
so its said 8 = 150
no 115 but i don't know the measure for angle 1 and 4
/_8 wht is this is it only 8 or something else
@iGreen
@adorablefourfootnine
umm I'm not sure ? all i know is that its asking what is the sum of angles 1 and 4
before that u gonna know this /_8
bc i dont understand wht is this
I don't understand your question :/
wht is this /_8
oh! it's a symbol for angle 8
@amorfide do hve any idea okay
@AnswerMyQuestions
okay i get it
its angle 8 measures 115
correct
I think angle 5 should also measure 155 because oposite angle
angle 8 = angle 5
not sure
quick i cant wait i suck in keeping patience
i don't know either... do you know someone who can help me?
@AnswerMyQuestions
isn't angle 1 same as angle 8
idk how to work out angle 4
i think angle 8 is same as angle 5
I don't understand this...
yea but it's opposite angles though
@AnswerMyQuestions read everything
that is also true
I remember doing traversals, but never exactly understood them...
opposite angles r equal
*transversals
if angle 8 = angle 5 = angle 4
angle 4 = 115
I believe angle 4 is angle 8 and angle 1 is angle 4 so 115+115 since opposite angles
might be wrong though
@amorfide how is it same they are way diferent
@ganeshie8
how is that possible though? i don't understand
I think angle 8 = andle 5 = angle 4
actually let's do this
so if you draw a line from angle 8 to form a straight line you get 180-115 is the angle on the outside so you get 65 which i think makes angle 6 65 since 6 and 4 are in a parallelogram you get 65+65=130 so angle 4 is 360-130 then divide by 2 to get 115 so angle 4 is 115 angle 1 is 115 so 115+115=230
therefore the sum is 230
or you can say that since the bottom left quadrant is equal to top right quadrant you can put angle 8 and angle 1 opposite to each other opposite angle states angle 1 is angle 8 so angle 1= 115 next you can say that the sahpe angle 1 is in matches the shape of the quadrant and has the same angle for the angle the dotted line forms therefore the opposite angle would be angle 4 since we know angle 1 is 115 then angle 4 is also 115 therefore the sum of angle 1 and angle 4 are 115+115 = 230
since you have |dw:1425987149137:dw|
then |dw:1425987165706:dw| these angles are equal
so 1=4 and 1=8 therefore they are the same angle
yup, @adorablefourfootnine can you please medal me
Thank you so much @amorfide for the help , and sure @Adi3 is it possible to medal more than one person?
You are welcome, if it doesn't make sense I could probably draw it step by step
|dw:1425987167731:dw| 8 = 5 (vertically opposite angles) 5 = 1 (corresponding angles) so, angle 1 = 115 also, 8 = 4 = 115(corresponding angles) 1+ 4 = 115+115 = 230
yeah akita explained it better
yes
no
sorry u already medaled him
i don't know how to do that though @Adi3
u cant
yeah i wanted to do both , you said its possible , so how do i do that
i thought u dint medal anyone
but all the credit goes to @amorfide
dang :/
