A. 6
B. 17
C. 90
D. 102

Answer 1

B:17

Explanation:

B:17

Answer 2

The correct answer is option B. 17

Explanation:

It is given that, ZX bisects ∠WZY. If the measure of ∠YXZ is (6m – 12)°

To find the value of m

From the figure we can see that, triangle WYZ is an isosceles triangle.

ZW = ZY

Then <YXZ = <WXZ = 90°

It is given ∠YXZ = (6m – 12)°

(6m – 12)° = 90°

6m = 90 + 12 = 102

m = 102/6 = 17

Therefore the value of m = 17

The correct answer is option B. 17
