1. Problem Description
We are given a diagram with parallel lines and a triangle. We are asked to find the relationship between the angles , , and .
2. Solution Steps
Let's denote the line segment by their endpoints. Line segment is parallel to line segment . Let the angle at vertex be , the angle at vertex be , and the angle at vertex be .
Since is parallel to , the angle between and is equal to the angle between and . This angle is the alternate interior angle and is .
In triangle , the sum of angles in a triangle is .
Therefore, .
