Answer:
i can't understand the question but if you put a link I can figure it out
You know angles B and C are both 60°, the values of the angles in an equilateral triangle. Since the sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360°, you have
B + C + x + y = 360°
60° +60° + x + y = 360°
x + y = 240°
#a
m<5=40°
#b
m<2=140
#c
<5 and <2 are linear pair(looked properly in diagram) Hence they are supplementary.
#d
<5 and 2 are same side interior angles (Clearly shown on diagram .
- We can call them co responding interior angles and their sum will be 180 if lines are parallel
#e
a||b
Let's verify
Let the angle below <1 be <3
Now
<2+<3=180
<5+<4=180
Hence verified
If you were to make both x's equivalent, you'd have to multiply the first equation by 2 to get rid of the coefficient, 1/2. However, you'd have to multiply 2 onto -8 as well, therefore the equation would turn into x - 16 = 18. That is not equivalent to x - 8 = 18.
I would go with B but this is a tricky question. Hopefully i am correct.
