Question

given m || n, find the value of x and y.
answer attempt 1 out of 3
x =
y =

Explanation:

Step1: Use vertical - angle property

Vertical angles are equal. The angle of \(125^{\circ}\) and \(x\) are vertical angles. So \(x = 125\).

Step2: Use corresponding - angle property

Since \(m\parallel n\), the angle \(y\) and the \(125^{\circ}\) angle are corresponding angles. Corresponding angles formed by two parallel lines and a transversal are equal. So \(y=125\).

Answer:

\(x = 125\), \(y = 125\)
