Answer:

x = 35 , y = 20

Explanation:

3x and 105° are alternate angles and are congruent ( equal) , so

3x = 105 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 35

the vertex angle of the triangle on the right = 105 ( alternate angles )

the sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

sum the 3 angles, equate to 180 and solve for y

x + 2y + 105 = 180

35 + 2y + 105 = 180

2y + 140 = 180 ( subtract 140 from both sides )

2y = 40 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 20
