Each interior opposite angle is 60 degrees, as the sum of the two interior opposite angles equals the exterior angle (120 degrees) since they add up with a third angle to form a linear pair with the exterior angle .

The new mean is 17.5. This is calculated by adjusting the total sum of observations from 340 to 350 after replacing 23 with 33, then dividing by 20 .

This equality arises from Euclid's parallel postulate, implying equal alternate interior angles signify parallelism, providing no angle disparity by transversal construction, confirming the lines' parallel nature .

There are 8 angles formed: the pair of exterior angles on the same side are supplementary to their adjacent interior angles, thus the interior angles are 105 degrees, and alternate angles to 75 degrees are also 75 degrees. Opposite angles are equal, so all respective angles follow these derived measurements .

Lines are parallel if alternate interior angles are equal, corresponding angles are equal, or the sum of interior angles on the same side is supplementary (180 degrees) which is deduced from Euclid's parallel postulate .

Given ∠Q = 90°, solving with Pythagorean triplets or trigonometric functions establishes that ∠P is roughly 16.26 degrees and ∠R is 73.74 degrees, using cosine and sine rules for precise angle calculations .

The choice of class interval size is influenced by the range of data, the level of detail desired, and ease of interpretation; a smaller interval provides more detail while a larger interval simplifies the data representation, balancing too fine versus too broad observations .

If the exterior angle is three times the interior angle, let x be the interior angle, so 3x equals the exterior, with their sum 180 degrees according to linear pairs, solving gives x = 45 degrees and 3x = 135 degrees .

The statement is an axiom because it is accepted as a fundamental truth that requires no proof, serving as a foundational element for further geometrical reasoning, contrasted with theorems that are derived and proven through logical deductions .

The mean is 20, calculated by (10+15+20+25+10+20+30+15+25+20+30+15+20+25+10)/15. The median is 20 (middle value when ordered). The mode is 20 (most frequent). Here, mean equals median and mode, showing statistical balance in data distribution .
