Question

Given m n,find the value of X and y

Answer 1

x = 131°

y = 131°

Explanation:

Since m║n, x = y

To solve for x, you must know what the supplementary angle of x is

In order to figure out the supplementary angle of x, add the two angles summing it up to 180° (which is the total)

*Note that a straight line measures 180°)

`x+49=180` where x is the supplementary angle of x

Subtract 49 from both sides

`x=131`

131°

that also means that y = 131°
