Lines a and b are cut by transversal f. At the intersection of lines f and a, the top left angle is 96 degrees. At the intersect

ion of lines b and f, the bottom right angle is (6 x minus 36) degrees.
What must be the value of x so that lines a and b are parallel lines cut by transversal f?

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that lines a and b are cut by transversal f.

If a transversal line intersect two parallel lines, then the alternate exterior angles are same.

We need to find the value of x so that lines a and b are parallel lines cut by transversal f.

So, equate both alternate exterior angles.

6x-36=96

Add 36 on both sides.

6x-36+36=96+36

6x=132

Divide both sides by 6.

x=\frac{132}{6}

x=22

The value of x is 22. Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answer:

C. 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse Alternate Interior Angles Theorem sttes that if two lines a and b are cut by transversal f so that the alternate interior angles are congruent, then a║b.

To prove that lines a and b are parallel, equate the measures of angles 96° and (6x-36)°:

6x-36=96\\ \\6x=96+36\\ \\6x=132\\ \\x=22

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer

Slope: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular slope is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

The original slope was 1/2. Flip it. 2/1=2. Now change the sign to -2.
