Question

Given m||n, find the value of x and y

Answer 1

Answer:

x=20,y=34

Step-by-step explanation:

x+14=2x-6 (vertically opposite angles)

x-2x = -6-14

-x = -20

x=20

x+14=y (corresponding angles)

20+14=y

y=34

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 20, y = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x - 6) and (x + 14) are vertical angles and are congruent, then

2x - 6 = x + 14 ( subtract x from both sides )

x - 6 = 14 ( add 6 to both sides )

x = 20

Then

2x - 6 = 2(20) - 6 = 40 - 6 = 34

y and (2x - 6) are alternate angles and are congruent , so

y = 34
