In the diagram MN PQ and RS are parallel lines ... - JAMB Mathematics 2017 Question
A
123o
B
170o
C
117o
D
137o
correct option: c
MN || PQ || RS
MN = PQ = RS (parallel lines)
Label the angle in the lines
a = i (corresponding angles are equal)
b = x (corresponding angles are equal)
If |MN| = |RS|
If a = i
and a = 63 = i
a + b = 180 (Adjacent interior angles are supplementary i.e add to 180)
∴ i + x = 180
63 + x = 180
x = 180 - 63
x = 1170
MN = PQ = RS (parallel lines)
Label the angle in the lines
a = i (corresponding angles are equal)
b = x (corresponding angles are equal)
If |MN| = |RS|
If a = i
and a = 63 = i
a + b = 180 (Adjacent interior angles are supplementary i.e add to 180)
∴ i + x = 180
63 + x = 180
x = 180 - 63
x = 1170
