If we know that the blue angle is `MEASURE^\circ`, what is the measure of angle `x`?

MEASURE `\Large{^\circ}`
init({ range: [[-4, 4], [-1, 1]], scale: 60 }); graph.pl = new ParallelLines(0, 0, 4, 0, 0); graph.pl.draw(); graph.pl.drawTransverse(ANCHOR); graph.pl.drawAngle(KNOWN_INDEX, true); graph.pl.drawAngle(UNKNOWN_INDEX, "x", GREEN);

What is the measure of the pink angle?

graph.pl.drawAngle(KNOWN_INDEX + 1, false, PINK);

The pink and blue angles add up to `180^\circ` because they are adjacent and form a straight line.

`\pink{\text{PINK_ANGLE}} = 180^{\circ} - \blue{MEASURE^{\circ}} = \green{180 - MEASURE^{\circ}}`

graph.pl.drawAngle(KNOWN_INDEX + 1, true, PINK);

The pink and green angles also add up to `180^\circ` because they are adjacent and form a straight line too.

`\green{\text{GREEN_ANGLE}}= 180^{\circ} - \pink{180 - MEASURE^{\circ}} = \green{MEASURE^{\circ}}`

graph.pl.drawAngle(UNKNOWN_INDEX, true, GREEN);
