Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Find the measure of angle 2.
Angles 2, 30°, and 76° form a straight line, therefore they add up to 180°. Angle 2 = 180° - 30° - 76° = 74°
Step 2: Find the measure of angle 1.
Since _l_ and _m_ are parallel, angle 1 and the combined angle of 30° and 76° are congruent corresponding angles. Angle 1 = 30° + 76° = 106°
Step 3: Find the measure of angle 3.
Since line _n_ is a straight line, angles 2 and 3 are supplementary and add up to 180°. Angle 3 = 180° - 74° = 106°
Step 4: Find the measure of angle 4.
Since _l_ and _m_ are parallel, and _n_ is a transversal, angle 4 and the combined angle of 30° and 76° are congruent corresponding angles. Angle 4 = 30° + 76° = 106°
