Answer: 63 degrees (second choice)
The two angles shown are corresponding angles. They are both on the bottom side of their adjacent parallel line, and at the same time, they are also on the left side of the transversal line. This is why they are corresponding angles.
Corresponding angles are congruent if you have a set of parallel lines like the diagram shows. So that's why a = 63.
Take the square root. The opposite of squaring something is taking the root :)
√x^2 = √26
x = √26
x = 5.099...
OR leave it if your teacher doesn't want a decimal since it can't be simplified anymore
30,240
60x24=1440x7=10,080x3= 30,240
The answer is C. Here you go.
