Construct a line parallel to PQ and which passes through W.
∴ a = 30° and b = 40°
y = a + b
= 30° + 40°
= 70°
EXAMPLE 4
In the diagram, AB is parallel to CD. Find the value of z.

Solution
Construct a line parallel to AB and which passes through K.
∴ p + 135° = 180° *Interior angles*
p = 45°
q + 145° = 180° *Interior angles*
q = 35°
z = p + q
= 45° + 35°
= 80°
