Question

21 in the diagram, \overleftrightarrow{mn} is parallel to \overleftrightarrow{pq}. find the following angle measures. hint: draw this transversal on your paper, label the angles and the measurements for each angle. diagram with lines mn, pq and transversal st, angles labeled 1 - 8, angle 6 is 128° m\angle 1 = \boxed{} degrees m\angle 2 = \boxed{} degrees m\angle 3 = \boxed{} degrees

Explanation:

Step1: Find \( m\angle1 \)

\(\angle1\) and the \(128^\circ\) angle ( \(\angle6\) ) are same - side interior angles? No, wait, \(\angle1\) and \(\angle5\) are corresponding angles? Wait, \(\angle6 = 128^\circ\), and \(\angle6\) and \(\angle5\) are supplementary (linear pair), so \(m\angle5=180 - 128=52^\circ\)? No, wait, \(\overline{MN}\parallel\overline{PQ}\), and the transversal is \(ST\). \(\angle1\) and \(\angle5\) are corresponding angles? Wait, no, \(\angle2\) and \(\angle6\) are alternate interior angles? Wait, let's correct. \(\angle6 = 128^\circ\), \(\angle6\) and \(\angle2\): since \(\overline{MN}\parallel\overline{PQ}\), \(\angle2\) and \(\angle6\) are same - side interior angles? No, same - side interior angles are supplementary. Wait, \(\angle6\) and \(\angle7\) are vertical angles? No, \(\angle6\) and \(\angle8\) are supplementary. Wait, let's start with \(\angle1\). \(\angle1\) and \(\angle5\): since \(\overline{MN}\parallel\overline{PQ}\), and transversal \(ST\), \(\angle1\) and \(\angle5\) are corresponding angles? Wait, \(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\) are supplementary (linear pair), so \(m\angle5 = 180 - 128=52^\circ\)? No, that's wrong. Wait, \(\angle6 = 128^\circ\), \(\angle6\) and \(\angle2\): if \(\overline{MN}\parallel\overline{PQ}\), then \(\angle2\) and \(\angle6\) are same - side interior angles, so they are supplementary? Wait, no, same - side interior angles are on the same side of the transversal and inside the two parallel lines. \(\angle2\) is between \(MN\) and \(ST\), \(\angle6\) is between \(PQ\) and \(ST\), and they are on the same side of \(ST\). So \(m\angle2 + m\angle6=180^\circ\)? Then \(m\angle2 = 180 - 128 = 52^\circ\)? No, that can't be. Wait, maybe \(\angle2\) and \(\angle6\) are alternate interior angles. Wait, alternate interior angles are equal. Wait, I think I mixed up. Let's use linear pairs first. \(\angle6 = 128^\circ\), so the angle adjacent to \(\angle6\) (linear pair) is \(180 - 128 = 52^\circ\). Now, \(\angle1\): since \(\overline{MN}\parallel\overline{PQ}\), \(\angle1\) and the angle equal to \(52^\circ\) (let's say \(\angle5\)) are corresponding angles, so \(m\angle1 = 128^\circ\)? Wait, no, I'm getting confused. Let's start over.

  1. For \(m\angle1\):

\(\angle1\) and \(\angle6\): Wait, \(\overline{MN}\parallel\overline{PQ}\), transversal \(ST\). \(\angle1\) and \(\angle5\) are corresponding angles. \(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\) are supplementary (linear pair), so \(m\angle5=180 - 128 = 52^\circ\)? No, that's incorrect. Wait, \(\angle6 = 128^\circ\), \(\angle6\) and \(\angle2\): \(\angle2\) and \(\angle6\) are alternate interior angles? If \(\overline{MN}\parallel\overline{PQ}\), then alternate interior angles are equal. So \(m\angle2=m\angle6 = 128^\circ\)? No, that can't be. Wait, no, alternate interior angles are inside the two parallel lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. \(\angle2\) is inside \(MN\) and \(ST\), \(\angle6\) is inside \(PQ\) and \(ST\), and on opposite sides of \(ST\). So \(\angle2\) and \(\angle6\) are alternate interior angles, so \(m\angle2 = m\angle6=128^\circ\)? Then \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) are supplementary (linear pair), so \(m\angle1=180 - 128 = 52^\circ\). Ah, that makes sense.

So Step 1: Find \(m\angle1\)
\(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) are linear pair (supplementary), and \(\angle2=\angle6 = 128^\circ\) (alternate interior angles, since \(\overline{MN}\parallel\overline{PQ}\)). So \(m\angle1=180 - 128 = 52^\circ\)? Wait, no, if \(\angle2 = 128^\circ\), then \(m\angle1=180 - 128 = 52^\circ\).

Step2: Find \(m\angle2\)

\(\angle2\) and \(\…

Answer:

\(m\angle1=\boxed{52}\) degrees, \(m\angle2=\boxed{128}\) degrees, \(m\angle3=\boxed{52}\) degrees
