Solving for your missing variable using corresponding angles ex 16

The video tutorial explains the concept of parallel lines and transversals, focusing on the relationships between interior and exterior angles. It introduces corresponding angles, which are equal in measure when formed by a transversal intersecting parallel lines. The tutorial demonstrates solving for X using the properties of corresponding angles, providing a step-by-step approach to rearranging and solving the equation. The video concludes with a summary of the key points discussed.

What is the role of a transversal in relation to parallel lines?

• It is perpendicular to the parallel lines.

• It intersects the parallel lines, forming various angles.

• It divides the parallel lines into equal segments.

• It runs parallel to the parallel lines.

Which type of angle is formed inside the parallel lines when intersected by a transversal?

• Exterior angle

• Alternate angle

• Interior angle

• Vertical angle

What is the relationship between corresponding angles when a transversal intersects parallel lines?

• They are complementary.

• They are alternate interior angles.

• They are equal in measure.

• They are supplementary.

How do you solve for X in the equation 9X - 7 = 21 - 3X?

• Add 7 to both sides and divide by 12.

• Subtract 3X from both sides and divide by 6.

• Add 3X to both sides and solve for X.

• Subtract 7 from both sides and solve for X.

What is the final value of X when solving the equation derived from corresponding angles?

• 7/2

• 28/3

• 7/3

• 14/3
