Homework 2 parallel lines cut by a transversal answer key

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, lines l and m are parallel and a transverse is intersecting these lines.

5). (9x + 2)° = 119° [Alternate intrior angles]

    9x = 117 ⇒ x = 13

6). (12x - 8)° + 104° = 180°

     12x = 180 - 96

     x = ⇒ x = 7

7). (5x + 7) = (8x - 71) [Alternate exterior angles]

    8x - 5x = 71 + 7

    3x = 78

    x = 26

8). (4x - 7) = (7x - 61) [Corresponding angles]

    7x - 4x = -7 + 61

    3x = 54

    x = 18

9). (9x + 25) = (13x - 19) [Corresponding angles]

    13x - 9x = 25 + 19

    4x = 44

    x = 11

   (13x - 19)° + (17y + 5)° = 180°[Linear pair of angles are supplementary]

    (13×11) - 19 + 17y + 5 = 180

    129 + 17y = 180

    17y = 180 - 129

     y = 3

10). (3x - 29) + (8y + 17) = 180 [linear pair of angles are supplementary]

     3x + 8y = 180 + 12

     3x + 8y = 192 -----(1)

     (8y + 17) = (6x - 7) [Alternate exterior angles]

     6x - 8y = 24

     3x - 4y = 12 -----(2)

     Equation (1) - equation (2)

     (3x + 8y) - (3x - 4y) = 192 - 12

     12y = 180

     y = 15

     From equation (1),

     3x + 8(15) = 192

     3x + 120 = 192

    x = 24

11). (3x + 49)° = (7x - 23)° [Corresponding angles]

    7x - 3x = 49 + 23

    4x = 72 ⇒ x = 18

    (11y - 1)° = (3x)° [Corresponding angles]

    11y = 3×18 + 1

     11y = 55 ⇒ y = 5  

12). (5x - 38)° = (3x - 4)° [Corresponding angles]

     5x - 3x = 38 - 4

     2x = 34

     x = 17

     (7y - 20)° + (5x - 38)° + 90° = 180°

     [Sum of interior angles of a triangle = 180°]

     7y + 5x - 58 = 90

     5x + 7y = 148

     5×17 + 7y = 148

     85 + 7y = 148

     7y = 148 - 85

     y =
