Question 1103334: two lines intersect and create four angles. one angle 70 degrees. the angles z and y are both linear pairs with 70 degrees. the angle x is a vertical angle to 70 degrees. find the degrees of the angles x,y and z

Vertical angles have the same measure, so x=70%5Eo .
The sum of the measures of the angles in a linear pair is 180%5Eo ,
so y=z=180%5Eo-70%5Eo=110%5Eo .
