If two lines are crossed by another line that is called the transversal, the corresponding angles those in matching corners. In this problem, we have two parallel lines:
In this way, x° and 76° are corresponding, therefore:
(x)° = 76°
∴ x = 76
When we know 2 angles and one side, we use the Law of Sines.
First we need to find that third angle.
Angle A =
180 -41 -62 = 77 degrees
The Law of Sines states that
side a / Sine (A) = side x / Sine (X)
14 / Sine (77) = side x / Sine (41)
14 * Sine (41) / Sine (77) = side x
side x = 14 * 0.65606 / 0.97437
<span>side x = 9.18484 / 0.97437
