8. EXAMPLE 1 Identify congruent angles SOLUTION By the Corresponding Angles Postulate, m 5 = 120°. Using the Vertical Angles Congruence Theorem, m 4 = 120°. Because 4 and 8 are corresponding angles, by the Corresponding Angles Postulate, you know that m 8 = 120°. The measure of three of the numbered angles is 120°. Identify the angles. Explain your reasoning.

9. EXAMPLE 2 Use properties of parallel lines ALGEBRA Find the value of x. SOLUTION By the Vertical Angles Congruence Theorem, m 4 = 115°. Lines a and b are parallel, so you can use the theorems about parallel lines. Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem m 4 + (x+5)° = 180° Substitute 115° for m 4. 115° + (x+5)° = 180° Combine like terms. x + 120 = 180 Subtract 120 from each side. x = 60
