The question, in short

A transversal crosses two parallel lines; one angle is 110°, with x° and y° at the other intersection. Find x and y.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and the diagram.

Part (a) · 1 mark

Using parallel line angle facts with the 110° angle, work out the value of x.

  1. 1x and 110° are co-interior angles between the parallel lines
  2. 2x = 180 − 110 = 70

Answer70

Part (b) · 1 mark

Using angles on a straight line, work out the value of y.

  1. 1Angles on a straight line: y = 180 − 70 = 110
