Question

6. Which statement is true? 8.8D

Answer 1

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles are better known as corresponding angles, and since the two lines are parallel, then the angles must be congruent. This means x = 115 degrees.

C. The values of x is 115 because the two angles shown are congruent.

Why the other answers are wrong:

A & B are wrong because it states the two angles are supplementary, but supplementary angles have to add up to 180 degrees and 115+115 is 230 not 180.

D is wrong because there's no logical explanation to why you would subtract 90 degrees from 115 to solve for x.
