Find angles between parallel lines

Angles opposed by line diagonal

m and n are parallel

Then 180° = (9x-7)° + ( 4x -8)° =

Isolate x

9x + 4x = 180 +7 + 8

13 x = 195

x = 195/13 = 15

Now to find y

Apply principle

Two lines are parallel ,if alternate internal angles are equal ( congruents)

Then this means m,n are parallel and

9x - 7 = 2y + 2

replace x= 15

Isolate y

2y = 9x - 7 - 2 = 9•(15) - 7 - 2 = 9•(15) -9 = 9•(14) = 126

y = 126/2 = 63
