Solution

1. Break Down the Problem

We need to find the measure of angle mTUX mTUX given that TV TV and WY WY are parallel lines, and the measure of angle mTUS=63 mTUS = 63^\circ .

2. Relevant Concepts

Since TV TV and WY WY are parallel, we can use the properties of corresponding angles and alternate interior angles formed by a transversal. In this case, TU TU acts as the transversal.

3. Analysis and Detail

  1. Since TV TV is parallel to WY WY , the angles formed by the transversal TU TU will create corresponding angles.
  2. The angle mTUS mTUS (which is 63 63^\circ ) and mTUX mTUX are alternate interior angles.
  3. Thus, we have

mTUX=mTUS mTUX = mTUS

4. Verify and Summarize

Since mTUS=63 mTUS = 63^\circ :

mTUX=63 mTUX = 63^\circ

Final Answer

The measure of angle mTUX mTUX is 63 63^\circ .
