Question

A pair of parallel lines is intersected by a transversal such that ∠1 and ∠2 form a pair of alternate interior angles. If m∠1= 3535^∘​, what is the measure of ∠2 ?

A.

35°

B.

145145^\circ​​

C.

5555^\circ​​

D.

6565^\circ​​

Correct option is A

Given:

A pair of parallel lines is intersected by a transversal.

\angle1 and \angle2 form a pair of alternate interior angles.

m1=35m\angle1= 35^\circ

Concept:

When two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, alternate interior angles are congruent. This means that if

\angle​1 and\angle2 are alternate interior angles, then:

m1m\angle1 = m2m\angle2​​
Solution:

m1m\angle1 = 3535^\circ we can conclude that:

m2=35m\angle2 = 35^\circ

​​Thus, the measure of 2\angle2 is 3535^\circ​​
