2. Angles of Triangles
Sign In
When using a protractor, remember that you should place it at the vertex of the angle.
∠ A=30^(∘), ∠ B=105^(∘), ∠ C=45^(∘), ∠ D=150^(∘), ∠ E=75^(∘), ∠ F=105^(∘), ∠ G=30^(∘)
We are given a diagram of two parallel lines and two transversals. We want to find the measures of the labeled angles.
We found the measures of all labeled angles. Recall that when a transversal intersects parallel lines, it creates alternate interior angles are congruent. Let's look at the given diagram once again!
As we can see, there are two pairs of alternate interior angles. Notice that one pair of these angles measures 30^(∘) and the second pair measures 105^(∘). This means that we correctly used the protractor to measure these angles.
