Re: Geomerty question
These types of problems are very simple. Ignore the circle in the beginning. Two properties are used:
1.) Two angles forming a straight angle are supplementary angles. Basically this means when there are two angles side by side on a straight line, they add up to 180 degrees.
2.) The 3 angles on a triangle add up to 180 degrees.
The rest is just algebra. Label each relevant angle x, y, z, etc. Write out relationships that you find. Combine equations to show your desired equality.
