Question

4.
Find the value of x when lines w and y are parallel:
(3x - 5)
W
85°
W
V

Answer 1

According to above figure,

(3x - 5)° = 85°

because they form pair of corresponding Angles.

• 3x - 5 = 85

• 3x = 85 + 5

• 3x = 90

• x = 90 ÷ 3

• x = 30°

Answer 2

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

w // V and t is transversal. So, corresponding angles are equal.

3x  - 5 = 85

Add 5 to both the sides

3x = 85 + 5

3x = 90

Divide both sides by 3

x = 90/3

x = 30
