Answer 1

Let's call the two intersecting lines AB and CD.

Since angle A is adjacent to angle B and angle C, we can conclude that angle A is the sum of angle B and angle C.

Therefore, m∠A = m∠B + m∠C.

We are given that m∠A = 75° and m∠C = 75°.

Since angle B and angle D are vertical angles, they are congruent. Therefore, m∠B = m∠D.

Since angle B and angle C are adjacent angles, they share the same vertex and one side. Therefore, they are supplementary angles. This means that m∠B + m∠C = 180°.

Substituting the given values, we have:

75° = m∠B + 75°

Simplifying the equation, we have:

75° - 75° = m∠B

0° = m∠B

Therefore, m∠B = 0°.

Since m∠B = m∠D, we can conclude that m∠D = 0°.

In conclusion, m∠D = 0°.

Answer 2

the answer is in the options

Answer 3

Apologies for not providing the answer in the options earlier. Let's check each option to see which one satisfies the given conditions:

Option 1: 75° - 75° = 0° (m∠B)
Option 2: 75° does not appear in the options
Option 3: 75° - 0° = 75° (m∠B)
Option 4: 75° + 0° = 75° (m∠B)

From the options, only option 1 (0°) and option 4 (75°) satisfy m∠B. Therefore, the answer is either 0° or 75°.
