Math Problem Statement

Answer

Fill in the table below given the following diagram. If m∠10 = 77°, m∠7 = 47°, m∠16 = 139°

Solution

Let's examine the angles given and solve the missing values using properties like vertical angles, corresponding angles, and supplementary angles.

Given:

  • m10=77m\angle 10 = 77^\circ
  • m7=47m\angle 7 = 47^\circ
  • m16=139m\angle 16 = 139^\circ

Step-by-Step Solution:

  1. Using m10=77m\angle 10 = 77^\circ:

    • Vertical angle with m13m\angle 13, so m13=77m\angle 13 = 77^\circ.
    • Corresponding angle with m2m\angle 2, so m2=77m\angle 2 = 77^\circ.
    • Alternate interior angle with m15m\angle 15, so m15=77m\angle 15 = 77^\circ.
  2. Using m7=47m\angle 7 = 47^\circ:

    • Vertical angle with m6m\angle 6, so m6=47m\angle 6 = 47^\circ.
    • Corresponding angle with m3m\angle 3, so m3=47m\angle 3 = 47^\circ.
    • Alternate interior angle with m8m\angle 8, so m8=47m\angle 8 = 47^\circ.
  3. Using m16=139m\angle 16 = 139^\circ:

    • Vertical angle with m17m\angle 17, so m17=139m\angle 17 = 139^\circ.
    • Corresponding angle with m12m\angle 12, so m12=139m\angle 12 = 139^\circ.
    • Alternate interior angle with m14m\angle 14, so m14=139m\angle 14 = 139^\circ.
  4. Remaining Angles:

    • m1m\angle 1 is supplementary to m2m\angle 2 because they are on a straight line, so: m1=18077=103m\angle 1 = 180^\circ - 77^\circ = 103^\circ
    • m4m\angle 4 is supplementary to m3m\angle 3, so: m4=18047=133m\angle 4 = 180^\circ - 47^\circ = 133^\circ
    • m5m\angle 5 is supplementary to m6m\angle 6, so: m5=18047=133m\angle 5 = 180^\circ - 47^\circ = 133^\circ
    • m9m\angle 9 is a vertical angle to m10m\angle 10, so: m9=77m\angle 9 = 77^\circ
    • m11m\angle 11 is supplementary to m12m\angle 12, so: m11=180139=41m\angle 11 = 180^\circ - 139^\circ = 41^\circ
    • m18m\angle 18 is supplementary to m17m\angle 17, so: m18=180139=41m\angle 18 = 180^\circ - 139^\circ = 41^\circ
