Lines L and K are parallel to each other. Measure of angle A= 120 degrees, and measure of angle C= 80 degrees. What is the number of degrees in measure of angle B? Please answer ASAP! Thanks!

The way I am doing it may not be the correct way but it works. What I did was take 90° away from 120° to make it 30° as if there is a line. I did this so I could make a triangle. Using the triangle addition postulate, I Added 30 to 80 to get 110 than subtracted that from 180 to get 70. Lastly, i added 90° to 70° to get 160°

Hope this helped you get the answer :)

The measure of angle B in Parallel lines will be 160°.

What are parallel lines?

Parallel lines are those lines that never intersect at any point and always maintain a constant distance.

We have,

Lines L and K are parallel to each other.

And,

The measure of angle A = 120°

The measure of angle C = 80°

Now,

Draw a straight line from A to B,

So, that ∠BAl = 90° and

∠ABk = 90°

We get,

ΔABC,

Now in ΔABC,

∠C = 80°

∠A = 120 - 90 = 30°

So, Using Tringle angle sum property,

80° + 30° + ∠ABC = 180°

⇒

∠ABC = 180° - 110°

∠ABC = 70°,

Now,

Adding ∠ABC and ∠ABk, to get ∠CBk,

i.e.

∠CBk = ∠ABC + ∠ABk = 70° + 90°

∠CBk = 160°

Hence we can say that the measure of angle B will be 160°.
