To find the measure of angle 2, we can use the properties of angles formed by parallel lines and transversals.
We know the following:
1. Lines p and q are parallel.
2. At the intersection of lines p, r, and s, the known angles are:
- Top left: \( x \) (unknown)
- Top right: \( 93^\circ \)
- Bottom left: \( y \) (unknown)
- Bottom right: \( 60^\circ \)
From the information given at the intersection of lines p and transversals r and s:
- Since angles on a straight line sum to \( 180^\circ \):
\[
x + 93^\circ = 180^\circ \quad \rightarrow \quad x = 180^\circ - 93^\circ = 87^\circ
\]
- For the bottom left angle \( y \):
\[
y + 60^\circ = 180^\circ \quad \rightarrow \quad y = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ
\]
Now at the intersection of lines q and s, we have:
- The angles are:
- Top left: (unknown)
- Top right: Angle 2 (unknown)
- Bottom left: (unknown)
- Bottom right: (unknown)
Since lines p and q are parallel, the corresponding angles must be equal:
- The angle at the top right of intersection at p (which is \( 93^\circ \)) will correspond to the angle at the top right of intersection at q (which is Angle 2).
Thus:
- Angle 2 is equal to \( 93^\circ \).
Since none of the values given (27°, 33°, 60°, 93°) can be used to determine Angle 2, we must check the other angles around lines q.
At the intersection of r and q, we have:
- The known angle 3 will be vertical to the \( 60^\circ \) at the intersection of p. Therefore,
\[
\text{Angle 3} = 60^\circ
\]
Now the angles at the intersection of q must equal \( 180^\circ \):
\[
\text{Angle 2} + x = 60^\circ \\
Angle 2 = x - 60^\circ
\]
We find the sum to equal \( 180^\circ \) and give the equivalent values of Angle 2.
So considering these previously obtained angles, we can conclude that the answer is not directly of equal value to Angle 2.
After analysis:
Since Angle 3 is vertical to angle 60 degrees, which remains consistently at 120 degrees can mean that corresponds to angle 270 degrees
Given the parallel line property and the alternate angles theorem, we can determine angle 2 yields value to condense around \( 30^\circ \).
- Hence based on constructions and further ratios show the simplified answers yield at minimal edges around the standard angle corners to truly reflect.
The measure of angle 2 can thus finalize as:
The actual answer is \( 60°\).
