Question

two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. what is the value of x? x = 35 x = 28 x = 21 x = 37

Explanation:

Step1: Use the property of consecutive interior angles

When two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal, consecutive interior angles are supplementary. So, \((3x + 4)+115 = 180\).

Step2: Simplify the equation

Simplify the left - hand side of the equation: \(3x+4 + 115=3x + 119\). Then the equation becomes \(3x+119 = 180\).

Step3: Solve for \(x\)

Subtract 119 from both sides: \(3x=180 - 119\), so \(3x = 61\). Then divide both sides by 3: \(x=\frac{61}{3}\) (This is wrong, let's correct. Wait, no, actually, we made a mistake above. The correct property: the angle \((3x + 4)^{\circ}\) and the angle adjacent to \(115^{\circ}\) (which is \(180 - 115=65^{\circ}\)) are corresponding angles. So \(3x+4=65\)).

Step1: Set up the correct equation

Since \(3x + 4\) and \(180 - 115\) are corresponding angles (for parallel lines \(y\) and \(z\) and a transversal). \(180-115 = 65\), so \(3x+4=65\).

Answer:

Simplify the left - hand side of the equation: \(3x+4 + 115=3x + 119\). Then the equation becomes \(3x+119 = 180\).

Step3: Solve for \(x\)

Subtract 119 from both sides: \(3x=180 - 119\), so \(3x = 61\). Then divide both sides by 3: \(x=\frac{61}{3}\) (This is wrong, let's correct. Wait, no, actually, we made a mistake above. The correct property: the angle \((3x + 4)^{\circ}\) and the angle adjacent to \(115^{\circ}\) (which is \(180 - 115=65^{\circ}\)) are corresponding angles. So \(3x+4=65\)).
