Question

How do I find the values of X and Y?

Answer 1

y = 45

x = 17

Explanation:

the angles of the big triangle are (180-56)/2 = 62

so we know x+y = 62

wwe also have a right triangle. and the other two sides are congruent which means the angles are congruent. 90/2=45

so y = 45

x = 62-45= 17
