Question

question 5 of 10
in the diagram below, \overleftrightarrow{bd} is parallel to \overleftrightarrow{xy}. what is the value of y?
a. 70
b. 130
c. 110
d. 20

Explanation:

Step1: Identify supplementary angle

The angle adjacent to $70^\circ$ is $180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ$.

Step2: Apply parallel lines rule

Since $\overleftrightarrow{BD} \parallel \overleftrightarrow{XY}$, $y$ equals this supplementary angle: $y = 110^\circ$.

Answer:

C. 110
