Using Parallel Lines and Transversals: Challenge Question

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-10-04] [Hit: ]
angle 3 would be 8x + y, and angle 8 would be 10x + 3y. The rest is unknown. How do i find the angle measures of those three angles?-8,4,......

in the diagram, angle 4 would be 13y. angle 3 would be 8x + y, and angle 8 would be 10x + 3y. The rest is unknown. How do i find the angle measures of those three angles?

8,4,6, and 2 are all congruent and 1,3, 5, and 7 are congruent.. Meaning angle 4 and 3 are supplementary, so add those together (which is 8x+14y) and do the math there, they have to add up to 180, when you find x and y plug it back it back in and calculate the angle for those two and your angle for 4 is the same as 2, 6, and 8 and your angle for 3 is the same as 1, 5, and 7!
