In the diagram, line x is parallel to line y,m21= 65°, and m27 = 55°. Stuart says that m212 = 60°. His reasoning is shown. Step
1: mZ8 = 60°, because m21+ m27 +m28 = 180º. Step 2:28 212, because 28 and 212 are corresponding angles. Step 3: So, mZ12 = 60° Use the drop-down menus to explain whether or not Stuart is correct.

If the negative square root is found to be one of your solutions, then that is indicative of a pair of imaginary roots (the imaginary i). According to the conjugate rule, if you have one solution that is imaginary, you will have another but with the opposite sign. For example, if a solution to a quadratic is found to be 2 - i, then its conjugate, 2 + i is also a solution. They will ALWAYS go in pairs. Same thing with radical solutions. If one solution is found to be
then will also be a solution.
