What type of angles are ∠4 and∠6? Question 2 options: adjacent angles alternate exterior angles alternate interior angles corres
lianna [129]

Angles 4 and 6 are called Alternate Exterior Angles

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternate Exterior Angles are a pair of angles on the outer side of the each of two lines but on opposite sides of the transversal.

When we take two parallel lines they will create 8 angles, such as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 & 8.

In that angle 6 is 65 degrees.

Angles 1,2,3 & $ are in one line and remaining four angles on other line.

So Angles 4 and 6 are alternate exterior angles.

shtirl [24]

The u.s. senate consists of 100 members, 2 from each state.

A committee of five senators is formed.

P(at least one from Your state) = 1- \frac{98c5}{100c5}

= 1- \frac{67910864}{75287520}

= 1-0.9020

= 0.098

That is, 9.80%.
