The variables x and y in the kite are 50 and 16.25 respectively.
What is the value of the variables in the kite?
There was 4 interior angles in a kite. The sum of the interior angles is 360° and it has one pair of opposite angles that are obtuse angles and are equal.
So,
(3x + 5)° = (4x - 45)°
3x + 5 = 4x - 45
3x - 4x = -45 - 5
-x = -50
x = -50/-1
x = 50
Also,
y° = (5y - 65)°
y = 5y - 65
y - 5y = -65
-4y = -65
y = -65/-4
y = 16.26
