Refer to the figure in which m(∠1) = 50o. Find the measure of each angle or sum of angles.

  1. (1) ∠3
  2. (2) ∠4
  3. (3) m(∠1) + m(∠2) + m(∠3)
  4. (4) m(∠2) + m(∠4)

Correct Answer

(1) 50
(2) 130
(3) 230
(4) 260

Explanation

  1. ∠1 and ∠3 are vertical angles, so m(∠1) = m(∠3).  Then m(∠3) = 50o
  2. Angles ∠1 and ∠4 are supplementary.  So, m(∠4) = 130o
  3. Angle ∠2 is supplementary to angle ∠1.  Then m(∠2) = 130o
    • m(∠1) + m(∠2) + m(∠3) = 50o + 130o + 50o = 230o
  4. m(∠2) + m(∠4) = 130o + 130o = 260o
