Question

Given that the measure of <6 is 62°, What are the measures of <5, 1, 2
EXPLAIN

Answer 1

From the figure, actually it is not possible for angle 6 to be 62° (as we can clearly see that angle 6 is an obtuse angle i.e. greater than 90°). But assuming that the figure is a mistake, if <6 = 62° then

<5 + <6 = 180°

=> <5 = 180° - <6

=> <5 = 118°

Since <1 and <5 are corresponding angles, so are equal. Therefore, <1 = 118°

Also, <2 and <6 are corresponding angles, so <2 = 62°
