Question

GEOMETRY HELP PLEASE

Answer 1

so like a first step a line equal how many degrees ?

Answer 2

180

Answer 3

have you heard about alternate interior angles theorem ?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

conform to this theorem on this posted image what angles are congruent ?

Answer 6

angles 1 and 2

Answer 7

no bc. these angles not are alternate angles

Answer 8

what mean alternat ?

Answer 9

opposite on the other side

Answer 10

Yes, I understand that, but may you clarify what I have to do to solve for b?

Answer 11

why for b. the a. is ended ?

Answer 12

What do you mean?

Answer 13

prove that <1 +<2 = 180°

Answer 14

a. conform to above wrote theorem what angles are congruent ?

Answer 15

this will help you solve the point b. too

Answer 16

look pls on this image

you ve said above that a line has 180°

yes ? so from this result that <1 +<3 = <2+<4 = 180°

yes ?

but if < +<3 = 180° so than not can satisfy the conditions of this above wrote theorem so not can be congruent angles

yes ?

and now using these knowledge what angles are alternate interior angles ?

Answer 17

<1 & <4, <2 & <3

Answer 18

exactly

Answer 19

Is that it?

Answer 20

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @jhonyy9
and now from this result that <1 +<3 = <2 +<4 = 180°
and from this above wrote congruentcy that <1 congr. <4 and <2 congr. <3

what result ? <1 +<2 = ?

Answer 21

180

Answer 22

sure - so a. solved

Answer 23

b. ?

Answer 24

what you know from point a. ?

Answer 25

180?

Answer 26

180° ? what is this ? what you know from point a. ?

Answer 27

what was proven there ?

Answer 28

m<1 +m<2 = 180°

Answer 29

yes and from this text of your problem you know that m<1 and m<2 has given expressions with x - yes ?

Answer 30

using these expressions what you can write ?

Answer 31

<1 = 20x +5
<2 = 24x -1

Answer 32

and assuming them make equal 180 degrees
yes ?

Answer 33

yes

Answer 34

so write this pls and from this equation you can calcule easy the x value

Answer 35

Okay great! I get it now. Thank you for being patient with me. I appreciate your help:)

Answer 36
