Question

two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. what is the value of y? y = 50 y = 30 y = 130 y = 110

Explanation:

Step1: Use the property of alternate interior angles

When two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal, alternate interior angles are equal. Here, line \(b\) and line \(c\) are parallel, and the given angle \(50^{\circ}\) and \(y^{\circ}\) are alternate interior angles.

Answer:

\(y = 50\)
