Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal.
a)Find the measures of the angles if a pair of interior angles on the same side of the transversal are represented by (5x-32) degrees and (x + 8) degrees.
b)Find the measures of the angles if a pair of interior angles on the same side of the transversal have measures such that one angle is 4 times the measure of the other.

a) (5x-32)+(x+8)= 180
6x-24 = 180
6x = 204
x = 36
therefore
5x-32 = 148 degrees
x+8 = 42 degrees
b) x+4x = 180
5x = 180
x = 36 degrees
4x = 144 degrees

So, you want to get the Xs on one side. 5x -32. You are going to divide 5x by 5 to get X by itself. Then, you are going to divide 32 by 5. That's the start!

Yes you can ask a question. But maybe you should do your homework yourself rather than just getting the answers.

It's homework *help*, not "do my homework for me."
If there's a specific part of the problem that you're not sure how to set up, ask that. Don't just ask people to do it for you.

Of course you can ask a question.

Yes, you may ask a question. What is your question?
