In the diagram below, ab is parallel to cd. what is the value of x?

The correct answer is: Option (D) x = 72°

Explanation:

When two lines are crossed by another line, the angles in matching corners are called corresponding angles. When the two lines are parallel, the corresponding angles are equal.

Here in this case, the two lines are "AB" and "CD", and both are parallel and are crossed by the line; therefore, the corresponding angles will be the same.

Since the first corresponding angle is 72°, the second angle x will be 72° as well. The correct answer is: x = 72° Option (D).

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0

the correct answer is a) they believe they have a "just cause."

islamic terrorists justify their violent actions because they believe they have a "just cause."

every act of terrorism of islamic sects is done “in the name of allah”. that justifies their actions. islam people who commit those terrorist attacks are not afraid to die. that is why the attacks have horrible consequences. they know they are going to die and they are proud to do it because it is in the name of allah, so it is justified and is for a “good cause.”

since the very beginning of the conflict with israel, islam is fighting a “sacred war”, respecting the words stated in the qur’an. they fight against the domination of the western countries and to defend their occupied territories.
