Lines And Angles

Question
CBSEENMA9002382

In figure, if x = y and a = b, prove that r || n.

Solution

r and m are two lines and a transversal p intersects them such that
x = y
But these angles form a pair of equal corresponding angles
∴ r || m    ...(1)
Again, m and n are two lines and a transversal q intersects them such that
a = b
But these angles form a pair of equal corresponding angles
∴ m || n    ...(2)
From (1) and (2), we have r || n.
