Question

Please help. Sooooo confused. GOAL is a quadrilateral in which GO is parallel to AL. If the measures of angle G=angle O = 40 degrees. What are the measures of angle A send L. It is not mentioned that A is equal to L,so?

Answer 1

Answer:

Angle A and L are 140 degrees each.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since GO and AL are parallel to each other, we can use the same side interior theorem to figure out angle A and L. Let's focus on GA first. We know that same side interior angles are supplementary (sum is 180 degrees). We know angle G is 40 degrees, so to figure out angle A, you do 180-40 which equals 140. So angle A is 140 degrees. You repeat this process for OL and you should also get 140 degrees for L.
