Describe a transformation that could be used to show that alternate interior angles are congruent.
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the picture attached,
Let 'l' be the original line having one angle ∠BAC.
If the original line 'l' is shifted or translated to line 'm', angle BAC will replace the angle BDE.
Since, measure of angles are preserved in the translation,
m∠BDE = m∠BAC [corresponding angles]
Since, ∠BDE ≅ ∠MDA [Vertical angles]
Therefore, m∠MDA = m∠BAC
Hence, alternate interior angles (∠MDA) and (∠BAC) will be congruent when line 'l' is translated to line 'm'.

Let the measure of angle be 'x'
Since, the measure of the supplement of an angle is 84° less than the measure of the angle.
Therefore, measure of supplement of x = x - 84°
The measure of two supplementary angles is 180 degrees.
So, the measure of angle =
Its supplement = x - 84° = 132° - 84°
= 48°
So, the measure of supplement of angle is 48 degrees.
