Question

given m || n, find the value of x and y. x = y = answer attempt 2 out of 100

Explanation:

Step1: Use corresponding - angle property

Since \(m\parallel n\), \(x\) and \(53^{\circ}\) are corresponding angles. So \(x = 53^{\circ}\).

Step2: Use linear - pair property

\(y\) and \(53^{\circ}\) form a linear - pair. The sum of angles in a linear - pair is \(180^{\circ}\). So \(y=180 - 53=127^{\circ}\).

Answer:

\(x = 53\), \(y = 127\)
