Question

Lines a and b are parallel. What is the measure of angle b? Enter your answer in the box. ​25 point question btw

Answer 1

`79^(\circ)`

Explanation:

From vertical angles,
`m\angle a=79^(\circ)`

From corresponding angles,
`m\angle b=m\angle a`

Therefore, we have
`m\angle b=m\angle a=\boxed{79^(\circ)}`

Answer 2

79 degrees

Explanation:

79 degrees is parallel to a. The line below is the same as the line above, since they are parallels, beaning d and b also are both 79 degrees
