Q. Lines l,m l, m , and n n are parallel to each other and p p is a transversal.\newlineAlso, xy=37 \frac{\angle x}{\angle y}=\frac{3}{7} .\newlineFind z \angle z .
  1. Identify Relationship: Identify the relationship between angles xx, yy, and zz given the parallel lines and transversal.\newlineSince lines ll, mm, and nn are parallel and pp is a transversal, angles xx and yy are corresponding angles on different parallel lines but on the same side of the transversal. Therefore, angle zz, which is also a corresponding angle to angle xx on another parallel line, will be equal to angle xx.
  2. Calculate Angle x: Calculate the value of angle x using the ratio given.\newlineThe ratio of angle x to angle y is 3:73:7. If we assume the sum of angles x and y is 180180 degrees (since they are supplementary as corresponding angles on parallel lines), we can set up the equation:\newline3x+7x=1803x + 7x = 180\newline10x=18010x = 180\newlinex=18x = 18 degrees.
