X=7 however the entire angle equals 64

Y=26

Explanation

There’s 2 alternative angles meaning they are equal to each other so you set them equal to each other

14x-34=9x+1

X=7

Now plug it in to find the exact measurement

In either one of them since they’re congruent

14(7)-34=64

X=7 but the angle equals 64

this part I’m not sure if it’s 180 or 90 but

Now do 90-26 you get what y is 26

Now to double check since it’s a right triangle they should all add up to 180

26+64+90
