Question

1. two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal forming alternate exterior angles. if one of the angles measures 85 degrees, what does the other angle measure? 85 degrees 95 degrees 180 degrees 105 degrees

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the property of alternate exterior angles

When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, alternate exterior angles are congruent.

Step2: Apply the property

Since one of the alternate exterior angles is \(85^{\circ}\), the other alternate exterior angle has the same measure.

Answer:

85 degrees
