A pair of parallel lines is cut by a transversal, as shown below:


Which of the following best represents the relationship between angles x and y? (1 point)


x = y

x = 180° − y

y = 180° − x

x = 2y

1 answer

Since the lines are parallel, corresponding angles are congruent. In this case, angle x and angle y are corresponding angles. Therefore, the correct relationship between angles x and y is x = y.
