Question

Find the value of x and y,

Can someone help???

Answer 1

x is 30° and y is 20°.

Explanation:

In an equilateral triangle all the angles form 60°.

1) 2x = 60

x = 60/2

x = 30°.

2) 3y = 60

y = 60/3

y = 20°.

x is 30° and y is 20°.

Answer 2

y=20

x=30

Explanation:

All the angles in an equilateral triangle is equal to 60 degrees. Knowing this, we can set up the following equations:

3y=60

2x=60

3y=60

Divide both sides by 3

3y/3=60/3

y=20

2x=60

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2=60/2

x=30

I hope this helps!
