Line l is parallel to line m. A transversal makes a 48° alternate interior angle with l. What is the corresponding alternate interior angle at m?
Answer: 48°
Alternate interior angles formed by parallel lines are equal: 48°.
A triangle has sides 7, 24, and 25. Is it a right triangle?
Answer: Yes, because 7² + 24² = 25²
7² + 24² = 49 + 576 = 625 = 25²; it satisfies the Pythagorean theorem.
A linear pair of angles measures (3x + 15)° and (x + 25)°. What is x?
Answer: 35
(3x+15)+(x+25)=180 → 4x+40=180 → x=35.
Two similar triangles have perimeters 30 cm and 45 cm. A side of the smaller is 8 cm. What is the corresponding side of the larger?
Answer: 12 cm
Ratio = 30:45 = 2:3; corresponding side = 8 × 3/2 = 12 cm.
Triangle MNP has an exterior angle at M of 130°. Angle N = 70°. What is angle P?
Answer: 60°
Exterior at M = angle N + angle P → 130° = 70° + P → P = 60°.
BD bisects angle ABC. If angle ABD = 35°, what is angle DBC?
Answer: 35°
An angle bisector creates two equal halves; angle DBC = 35°.
Adjacent supplementary angles at an intersection are (5x + 10)° and (3x + 30)°. What is x?
Answer: 17.5
(5x+10)+(3x+30)=180 → 8x+40=180 → 8x=140 → x=17.5.
