Question
![**Question 7 of 50**
The value of \( q \) is:
[Diagram Explanation]
The diagram consists of two horizontal parallel lines intersected by a transversal. The parallel lines are labeled with angles as follows:
- The angle labeled \( q \).
- The angle adjacent to \( q \) measures 60 degrees.
- The angle vertically opposite to \( q \) measures 26 degrees.
- The angle adjacent to the 26-degree angle measures 40 degrees.
[Answer Choices]
- 40
- 42
- 39
[Buttons]
- Back
- Next
**Explanation:**
To solve for \( q \), apply properties of alternate interior angles and the angles on a straight line. The measures of angles around intersections can help deduce \( q \)'s measure based on linear pairs and corresponding angles.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Ff7e912d8-40dc-430f-940e-54afe6f8f7ab%2F08461ed8-b1f7-4b5d-9330-d2cdc9da35d7%2F44htnql_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
