A pathway divides a rectangular garden into two parts as shown. Find the measure of angle A

Answer:
m < A = 101 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
The transverse line crosses 2 parallel lines (opposite angles of a rectangle are parallel) , so the same side angles add up to 180 degrees.
m < A + 79 = 180
m < A = 101 degrees.
Answer:
A=101°
Step-by-step explanation:
The two lengths of the rectangle are parallel and therefore the sides of the path form two parallel transversals.
The angle marked 79° and the angle marked A are supplementary ( they add up to 180°)
A+79=180°
A=180-79
=101°
