What is the value of x which proves that the runways are parallel? What is the measure of the larger angle?

118°

Step-by-step explanation:

When two parallel lines are cut by a tranversal, then the exterior angles are supplimentary and the corresponding angles are congruent.

Therefore the angle above (15x - 17)° is also (5x + 17)° and the angle below (5x + 17)° is also (15x - 17)°.

Angles on a straight line adds up to 180°. So to know the measure of the larger angle we must both equations and equal it to 180° to find x in order to know the larger angle.

(5x + 17) + (15x - 17) = 180

5x + 15x + 17 - 17 = 180

20x = 180

20x/20 = 180/20

x = 9°

Nkw let's substitute x = 9 into the equations

5x + 17 =

5(9) + 17 =

= 62°

15x - 17 =

15(9) - 17 =

= 118°

Both equations should add up to be 180°.

Therefore the measure of the largest angle is 118°.

domain is all the x values included in the

0 ≤ x ≤ 2

range is all the y values of the graph

-2 ≤ y ≤ 2

***keep in mind that there are different ways to show domain and range

hope this !
