Question

1. (a)__ (b)__

Explanation:

Step1: Identify angle - relationship

The 70 - degree angle and angle \(x\) are corresponding angles (assuming the two horizontal lines are parallel). Corresponding angles are equal when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal.

Step2: Determine value of \(x\)

Since corresponding angles are equal, \(x = 70^{\circ}\).

Answer:

(a) \(70^{\circ}\)
(b) (There is not enough information given in the problem - statement to answer part (b). If we assume the problem just wants the value of \(x\) for part (a), we have answered it. If part (b) has some other related - question, more context is needed.)
