Question

If the transveral intersects two parallel lines such that the ratio between the interior angles on one of its side is 3:7 what will be the measure of the smaller angle?

Answer 1

Measure of the smaller angle will be 54

Step-by-step explanation:

let us take 3:7 as 3x and 7x

3x+7x=180 (Adjacent Angles Are Supplementary )

10x=180

x=180/10

x=18

therefore : 3x = 3 *18 = 54

7x =7*18=126

Thus, 54 is the measure of smaller angle
