I think the answer is D.

Well let's see. Each triangle should have a total of 180 degrees. Triangle #1: 95+50+x=180 Triangle #2: 35+50+x=180 So both of them: The missing angle for Triangle #1: 35 The missing angle for Triangle #2: 95 What do you think this means so far? Let me know what you think so far and if you get what I'm saying so far and if you need any help :P

So they are corresponding? Because if you add 35 + 50 + 95 it equals 180 and if you add 95 + 50 + 35 it equals 180

@EliLightE Would the answer be C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
