Question

1. ∠XVR =

Answer 1

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. ∠XVR = 180 - <XVW (angle on a straight line)

∠XVR = 180 - 55°

∠XVR = 125°

2. ∠RVS = <XVW (Vertical angles are congruent)

∠RVS = 55°

3. ∠WVS = ∠XVR (vertical angles are congruent)

∠WVS = 125°

4. ∠RST = <R + <RVS (exterior angle theorem)

<RST = 55 + 55

<RST = 110°

5. ∠RSV = 180 - (<R + <RVS) (sum of triangle)

∠RSV = 180 - (55 + 55)

∠RSV = 70°

6. ∠VSU = <RST (vertical angles are congruent)

<VSU = 70°

7. ∠UST = <RSV (vertical angles)

<UST = 70°

8. ∠TUS = 180 - (<UST + <T) (sum of triangle)

<TUS = 180 - (70 + 71)

<TUS = 39°
