Explanation:

Hey there!!

a = 40° { corresponding angles on a parallel lines are equal}.

As A and B are parallel, a and 40° are corresponding angles.

Hope it helps...

The value of angle "a" will be 40°

What is corresponding angle ?

The angles which are on the same side of one of two lines cut by a transversal and are on the same side of the transversal is called corresponding angles.

since , angle a and angle B = 40° (given) are on the same relative position at the intersection where a straight line crosses two others and since both the lines are parallel to each other hence ,both the angles are said to be corresponding angles .This implies both the angles must be equal .

angle a = 40°
