Question

Lines AB and CD and are parallel. Find the measures of the three angles in triangle ABF.

Answer 1

Answer:    ∠B = 42°   ∠A = 23°  ∠F = 115°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠B≅∠C  alternate interior angles  42°

  ∠CDF is supplementary to ∠CDE,

so m∠CDF = 23°  and ∠FAB≅∠CDF so m∠FAB= 23°

also ∠A ≅ CDE  corresponding angles  157° ∠FAB is suplementary to ∠A

so 180 - 157 = 23 gives the m∠FAB

The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180°, so m∠AFB = 180 -(23 +42)

180- 65 = 115 = m∠F
