Question

What is the measure of angle x?. use the image below to help solve.

Answer 1

The measure of the angle x is 56 degrees

To determine the value of x, we have to know the following;

• Alternating angles are equal
• Corresponding angles are equal
• Same side interior angles are equal
• Same - side exterior angles are equal

Then, we can see that the angles 56 degree and x are alternating angles due to the parallel lines.

Thus, we can say that;

x = 56 degrees
