Use the figure to answer the question.
An inclined transversal passes through two vertical parallel lines labeled upper M and upper N. The angles formed around the intersection point of upper M are labeled clockwise, starting from the upper left quadrant: 1, 2, 4, and 3. The corresponding angles formed around the intersection point of upper N are labeled clockwise, starting from the upper left quadrant: 5, 6, 8, and 7.
If angle 4 is 42° and lines M and N are parallel, give a reason why angle 5 is also 42° .
