Respuesta :

Sum of interiors =exterior angle

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto <I=56+66[/tex]

  • Add both

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto <I=122[/tex]

Now

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto I+x=180[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x+122=180[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=180-122[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=58[/tex]

The measure of x° is 58° .

What are corresponding angles?

The corresponding angles definition tells us that when two parallel lines are intersected by a third one, the angles that occupy the same relative position at each intersection are known to be corresponding angles to each other.

What is corresponding angles theorem?

According to the corresponding angles theorem, the statement “If a line intersects two parallel lines, then the corresponding angles in the two intersection regions are congruent”  

According to the question

In the triangle AHI  

∠A = 66°

∠H = 56°

By using sum of angle of triangle = 180°  

∠A + ∠H + ∠I  = 180°  

66° + 56° + ∠I  = 180°

∠I  = 180° - 122°

∠I  = 58°

As , given HI is parallel to JK

Now,

According to the corresponding angles theorem

If a line intersects two parallel lines, then the corresponding angles in the two intersection regions are congruent .

Therefore,

∠I  = ∠K = x°  

i.e

x° = 58°

Hence, the measure of x° is 58° .
