Question

Transversals

Answer 1

Solve for x ._.

Answer 2

Before we solve this, let's just cover some basics about transversals

all these angles equal each other

Answer 3

and all these angles of b are equal to each other

Answer 4

and one last thing is that a + b = 180

Answer 5

so look at your image

are those two angles equal to each other?

Answer 6

They look like they are both a's ._.

Answer 7

Exactly!! They're equal to each other

so we can write it as

14x - 13 = 8x + 5

can you solve for x now?

Answer 8

x=3?

Answer 9

You nailed it!

Answer 10

But that isn't an option choice ._.

Answer 11

What are the answer choices?

Perhaps they want you to solve for x and then you're supposed to find the value of the angles

which, in that case, you plug that value of x back into either of the equations and solve

the angle = (8*3) + 5 = ?

Answer 12

Answer 13

is that an answer choice? :b

Answer 14

Wait nvm 3 is an answer choice ._. Imma put meh glasses on ._.

Answer 15
