In the diagram, ST is parallel to UW, < WVT = xo, < VUT = yo, < RSV = 45o and < VTU = 20o. Calculate the value of y

A.

20

B.

25

C.

45

D.

65

Correct answer is B

xo + zo = 180o (sum of < on str. line)

45o + zo = 180o

zo = 180o - 45o

z = 135o

z + yo + 20o = 180o (sum of < s in \(\bigtriangleup\))

135o + yo + 20o = 180o

yo + 155o = 180o

yo + 180o - 155o

yo = 25o

In the diagram, ST is parallel to UW, < WVT = xo, < VUT = yo, < RSV = 45o and < VTU = 20o. Find the value of x

A.

20

B.

45

C.

65

D.

135

Correct answer is B

From the diagram SR//UW given that < RSV = 45o and < WVT = xo

< WVT = 45o(corresponding angle)

xo = 45
