Question

two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. what is the value of y? y = 40 y = 80 y = 100 y = 120

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the relationship between angles

When two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal, the corresponding angles are equal.

Step2: Determine the value of \( y \)

The angle of \( 80^{\circ} \) and \( y^{\circ} \) are corresponding angles. So, \( y = 80 \)

Answer:

\( y = 80 \)
