Question

If M
and N
are parallel and angle 1 is 135°
, what is the sum of angle 6 and angle 8?

Answer 1

I don’t have the diagram, so I can’t tell which angles 6 and 8 are. Could you either upload the figure or describe where angles 6 and 8 lie (for example: “both are interior between the two parallel lines on the same side of a transversal,” or “angle 6 is at the upper intersection on the left, angle 8 at the lower intersection on the right,” etc.)?

If you want a quick hint while you fetch the diagram:
- Vertical and corresponding angles equal; adjacent angles on a line are supplementary (sum to 180°).
- If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, consecutive interior angles sum to 180°.
Give the positions of angles 6 and 8 and I’ll compute the sum.
