Find the measures of the numbered angles in the diagram.

Find the value of that makes lines and parallel.

A typical male sprinter can maintain his maximum acceleration for \({\bf{2}}.{\bf{0}}\;{\bf{s}}\), and his maximum speed is \({\bf{10 m/s}}\). After he reaches this maximum speed, his acceleration becomes zero, and then he runs at constant speed. Assume that his acceleration is constant during the first \({\bf{2}}.{\bf{0}}\;{\bf{s}}\) of the race, that he starts from rest, and that he runs in a straight line. (a) How far has the sprinter run when he reaches his maximum speed? (b) What is the magnitude of his average velocity for a race of these lengths: (i) \({\bf{50}}.{\bf{0}}\;{\bf{m}}\); (ii) \({\bf{100}}.{\bf{0}}\;{\bf{m}}\); (iii) \({\bf{200}}.{\bf{0}}\;{\bf{m}}\)?
Which angles have the same measure as in the diagram?

Find the value of xin the figure. Then find the unknown angle measures.
