Question

Given that line a is parallel to line b and that line c is parallel to line d, if angle 13=(12x-22) and angle 14=(9x-29), find angle 2

Answer 1

Angle 2 is 70 degrees

Explanation:

angle 13 + angle 14 = 180

12x - 22 + 9x - 29 = 180

21x - 51 = 180

21x = 231

x = 11

angle 14 = angle 2

9x - 29 = angle 2

9(11) - 29 = angle 2

99 - 29 = angle 2

70 = angle 2
