Question

Find the value of each variable.

Answer 1

x = 63 , y = 90

Explanation:

assuming DF is the diameter of the semicircle , then

∠ DEF = y = 90° ( angle inh a semicircle )

then

x + y + 27° = 180° ( angle sum of a triangle )

x + 90 + 27 = 180

x + 117 = 180 ( subtract 117 from both sides )

x = 63
