Question

HELP ME! Find the value of x and y.

Answer 1

The answer is "x = 63°, y = 27°".

Explanation:

x and angle 117° are supplementary angles, which means the sum of both angles are 180°. Add 63 to 117 and you get 180.

Answer 2

x=63, y= 27

Explanation:

x+117 = 180 They make a straight line

Subtract 117 from each side

x+117-117 = 180-117

x = 63

x+y = 90

63+y = 90

Subtract 63 from each side

63-63 +y = 90-63

y = 27
