<1 and <7 measures 42 degrees
2 and 5 are alternate interior angles from the figure above
notice, the first term is 9.5
from there it goes to 11.5, well, how much is it being added to get 11.5?
well 9.5 + 2, is 11.5, so it was added 2 to 9.5
then it goes from 11.5 to 13.5, namely, 11.5+2 = 13.5
and then 13.5+2 = 15.5 and so on
so, the "common difference" or the common addition value, is 2
how do you find the nth term?
well
