Sep 5, 2021 · \(\overleftrightarrow{AB} || \overleftrightarrow{CD}\) since the arrows indicate parallel lines. \(x^{\circ} = 40^{\circ}\) because alternate interior angles of parallel lines are equal. \(y^{\circ} = z^{\circ} = 180^{\circ} - 40^{\circ} = 140^{\circ}\). Answer: \(x = 40, y = 140, z = 140\).

Parallel Lines. Lines are parallel if they are always the same distance apart (called "equidistant"), and will never meet. Just remember: Always the same distance apart and never touching. The red line is parallel to the blue line in each of these examples: Example 1.

- Summary
Two lines are perpendicular when they meet at a right angle (90°). To find a perpendicular slope: In other words the negative reciprocal
When we multiply a slope m by its perpendicular slope −1m we get simply −1. So to quickly check if two lines are perpendicular: Like this:
The previous methods work nicely except for a vertical line: In this case the gradient is undefined (as we cannot divide by 0): m = yA − yBxA − xB = 4 − 12 − 2 = 30= undefined So just rely on the fact that: 1. a vertical line is parallel to another vertical line. 2. a vertical line is perpendicular to a horizontal line (and vice versa).

Aug 12, 2022 · This image shows two intersecting lines, \(\overleftrightarrow{AB}\) and \(\overleftrightarrow{YZ}\). They intersect at point X, forming four angles. Angles ∠AXY and ∠AXZ are supplementary because together they make up the straight angle ∠YXZ. Use this information to find the measurement of ∠AXZ.
If there is a transversal line that intersects two parallel lines at two different points, it will form 4 angles at each point. The corresponding angles formed by the two parallel lines and a transversal are equal.
What are Angles? Angles are the shape that is formed when the endpoints of two rays meet at a single point. They are measured in degrees (°) or radians. A complete rotation is equal to an angle of 360 degrees. It is represented by the symbol ‘∠’. Types of Lines and Angles.
