Find the measures of corresponding angles when the lines are parallel Geometry

Given that L_1 and L_2 are parallel, determine the value of the angle \widehat{a}.

-

If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are formed in the same position in terms of the transversal. Therefore, \widehat{a} and \widehat{b} are corresponding.

The corresponding angles theorem implies that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the corresponding angles are congruent.

\widehat{a}=60°

The corresponding angles theorem implies that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the corresponding angles are congruent.

\widehat{a} = \widehat{b}

\widehat{b} = 180^\circ - 135^\circ

\widehat{b} = 45^\circ

\widehat{a}=45°
