Answer:

1) x = 21deg, y = 146deg

2) x = 52deg, y = 128deg

3) x = 20deg, y=80deg (assuming we're computing angles of the kite, not of the triangles).

4). a = 116deg, c = 64deg

Explanation:

Problem 1:

The kite is symmetrical, so y = 146deg.

we can compute x as 360deg - 146deg - 146deg - 47deg; because the sum of angles is 360deg in a quadrangle.

360deg - 146deg - 146deg - 47deg = 21deg

Problem 2:

y = 128deg; as it's symmetrical

x = 180deg - y = 52deg

Problem 3:

The smallest triangle has angles y/2, 50deg and 90deg, so

y/2 = 180deg - 90deg - 50deg = 40deg

y = 80deg (this assumes y is the angle of the kite, not half).

Similarily,

x/2 = 180deg - 80deg - 90deg = 10deg

x = 20deg (again, assuming x is the angle of the kite, not half).

Problem 4:

a = 116deg

c = 180deg - 116deg = 64deg (see problem 2).
