Answer: Angle w and angle z should equal 92° to prove that r║s
Step-by-step explanation: Let us start by constructing the lines r and s, and then draw a transversal to intersect both lines as stated in the question. At the intersection of lines m and r, we have clockwise from the top angles w, x and the other two blank. This is as shown in the picture attached.
Also at the intersection of lines m and s, clockwise from the top, the angles are 92, y, z and a blank. This is also clearly marked in the picture attached.
If the two lines r and s are parallel, then it means;
(1) Angle 92 is equal to angle z (opposite angles are equal)
(2) Angle z is equal to the blank underneath angle x (corresponding angles on two parallel lines are equal)
(3) Angle 92 is equal to the blank underneath angle x (alternate angles on two parallel lines are equal)
(4) Angle 92 is equal to angle w (corresponding angles on two parallel lines are equal)
Therefore, of all four angles marked as w, x, y and z angles w and z should equal 92° to prove that line r is parallel to line s.
