Q:

Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal and form a pair of alternate exterior angles. One angle measures (6x + 5)° and the other measures (7x – 4)°. Explain how to determine what those angles actually measure?

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Both angles measure 59°Step-by-step explanation:All angles opposed by a vertice and alternate angles (exterior and exterior) and equal. That means that you can solve equaling both equations, since they measure the same. After finding X, substitute that value in the equations to find the angle measure
