Question

Use the diagram and equations. below to match the following angles with their correct measures

Answer 1

so you would set angle y plus angle z equal to 90 degrees.
2b + 6 +3b - 1 = 90
5b + 5 = 90
5b = 85
b = 17
so for y 3(17)-1 = 50 degrees
so for z 2(17) + 6 = 40 degrees
angle y and w form a straight line equal to 180 degreew so w = 180 - 50 = 130 degrees which leaves x being 140 degrees
