A transversal intersects a pair of parallel lines ab and cd at p and q respectively. if the bisectors pm and qm of the angles apq and cqp meet at m what is angle pmqPLEASE GIVE EXPLANATION IN DETAIL |

Answer» Step-by-step explanation: The transversal AD intersects the two lines PQ and RS at POINTS B and C respectively. BE is the bisector of ∠ABQ and CF is the bisector of ∠BCS. As, BE is the bisector of ∠ABQ, then, ∠ABE= 2 1
∠ABQ In the same way, ∠BCF= 2 1
∠BCS Since BE and CF are parallel and AD is the transversal, THEREFORE, by corresponding angle AXIOM, ∠ABE=∠BCF 2 1
∠ABQ= 2 1
∠BCS ∠ABQ=∠BCS Therefore, by the CONVERSE of corresponding angle axiom, PQ∥RS. |
