Use the diagram to find the value of a. the parallel lines are marked.

62, because of corresponding angles theorem.

The correct option is C. 62°

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines are marked in the diagram.

Corresponding angles are the angles which are formed on the same side of the parallel lines provided a transversal is passing through them

Also, A transversal is passing through the two parallel lines forming the corresponding angles

Since, The corresponding angles are always equal.

Now, from the question we can clearly see that 62° and the angle a lies on the same side of the parallel lines

So, The measure of both will be equal

⇒ m∠a = 62°

Therefore, The correct option is C. 62°

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have

try looking in the very back of the book : )
