Look at this diagram: GHIJKLMNIf HJ and KM are parallel lines and mJIG = 43°, what is mKLN?

Look At This Diagram GHIJKLMNIf HJ And KM Are Parallel Lines And MJIG 43 What Is MKLN class=

Answer :

We are given that lines HJ and KM are parallel. We notice that the angles:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \angle KLN \\ \angle HIL \end{gathered}[/tex]

Are corresponding angles, and therefore they are congruent, that is:

[tex]\angle KLN\cong\angle HIL[/tex]

Also, angles:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \angle HIL \\ \angle JIG \end{gathered}[/tex]

Are vertical angles, therefore, they are equal:

[tex]\angle HIL\cong\angle JIG[/tex]

Therefore, combining the two statements we get:

[tex]\angle KLN\cong\angle JIG[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\angle KLN=43[/tex]

Angle KLN equals 43 degrees.
