Question

Please help me with this I need to find out what y is

Answer 1

26°

Explanation:

<DFG+<EFG = 180°( Being sum of adjacent angle in linear pair is 180°)

You can also write;

<DFG+<EFG = 180°( Being sum of supplementary angle is 180°)

By putting the value of those angles;

5y+3+(2y-5)=180

5y+3+2y-5=180

5y+2y-5+3 =180°

7y-2=180°

7y=180+2

7y=182

y=182/7

y=26°

Hence,

The value of y is 26°
