Answer:

Parallel line have the same slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines are those lines which never intersect each other and distance between these two lines is always equal.

Now, if the parallel lines have same origin, x-intercepts and y -intercepts then it will intersect and these points which contradicts the definition of parallel lines.

Therefore, we can say that parallel lines have the same slope.

Hence, second option is correct.

Use an algebraic equation to find the measures of the two angles described below. Begin by letting x represent the degree measur

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

13 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the degree measure of the angle's complement

Then we have the other angle is x + 64

Because the 2 angles complement each other so the sum of the 2 angles is 90

So we have the equation: 2x + 64 = 90

<=> 2x = 26

<=> x = 13
