which of the following statements about the image below is true?
the measure of \\( \angle s w x \\) is \\( 72 ^ { \circ } \\).
\\( \angle s w r \\) and \\( \angle w r s \\) are supplementary.
line \\( u r \\) and line \\( v s \\) are perpendicular.
line \\( u r \\) and line \\( v w \\) are parallel.
Step1: Analyze the first option
$\angle SWX$ and the $72^{\circ}$ angle are not the same. $\angle SWX = 180^{\circ}- 72^{\circ}=108^{\circ}$ (linear - pair of angles). So the first option is wrong.
Step2: Analyze the second option
$\angle SWR = 72^{\circ}$ (given). $\angle WRS=180^{\circ}-(90^{\circ}+18^{\circ}) = 72^{\circ}$ (sum of angles in a triangle is $180^{\circ}$, right - angle is $90^{\circ}$). $72^{\circ}+72^{\circ}
eq180^{\circ}$, so they are not supplementary.
Step3: Analyze the third option
There is no indication that line $UR$ and line $VS$ are perpendicular.
Step4: Analyze the fourth option
Line $UR$ and line $VW$ are both perpendicular to the transversal (implied by the right - angles in the figure). If two lines are perpendicular to the same line, then they are parallel.
