A pipe cleaner lay across a wire shelf. The wires that make up the shelf are parallel, and the pipe cleaner is a transversal. The parallel wires are labeled a, b, and, c, and the angles are labeled with numbers.
Answer
A
They are same-side interior angles, so angle 3 measures 50°.
B
They are alternate interior angles, so angle 3 also measures 130°.
C
They are corresponding angles, so angle 3 also measures 130°.
D
They are alternate exterior angles, so angle 3 measures 50°.
