Given that l 1 and l 2 are parallel lines, solve the angle measurements for all the angles in the figure shown.
Two parallel horizontal lines are intersected by a transversal. The transversal makes four angles labeled 1, 2, 3, and 120 degrees with the line at the top. The transversal makes four angles numbered 5, 6, 7, and 8 with the line at the bottom. 1, 2, 7, and 8 are exterior angles. 3, 120 degrees, 5, and 6 are interior angles.
5 .
Find the measure of the vertical angles in the figure shown.

7 .
Use the given figure to solve for the angles.
A horizontal line and a vertical line intersect each other forming a right angle. A line originates from the intersection of the horizontal and vertical lines. This line makes an angle, 3 x plus 1 degrees with the horizontal line. This line makes an angle, 7 x plus 12 degrees with the vertical line.
8 .
Use the given figure to solve for the angle measurements.
A horizontal line with two lines originating from its center. The first ray makes an angle, 6 x minus 14 degrees with the horizontal line. The angle formed between the two rays is labeled 9 x plus 4 degrees. The second ray makes an angle, 6 x plus 1 degrees with the horizontal line.
