Answer: In geometry, an altitude of a triangle is a line segment through a vertex and perpendicular to (i.e., forming a right angle with) a line containing the base (the side opposite the vertex). This line containing the opposite side is called the extended base of the altitude.

The value of a and b

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Both a and b would both equal 45 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we need to note that a and 135 create a straight line. Since a straight line has 180 degrees, we can create an equation to solve for a.

135 + a = 180

a = 45

Now that we know a is equal to 45, we can tell that b is also equal to that amount. This is because two parallel lines cut by a transversal creates the same angle.
