The values of x and y in the triangle are 46° and 67° respectively.

The triangle drawn is an isosceles triangle where the base angles are equal .

This means the third angle in the triangle will also be : y

Using the information;

  • y + 113 = 180 (supplementary angles sum up to 180)

y = 180 - 113

y = 67

To obtain x ;

y + y + x = 180 (sum of angles in a triangle)

67 + 67 + x = 180

x + 134 = 180

x = 180 - 134

x = 46°

Hence, x = 46 and y = 67
