Question

Can someone help me solve this problem please! I'd really appreciate it!!

Answer 1

X=112
Y=90
Explanation: Y is 90 because you can see that it is a right angle! To find X you can find the 3rd angle that is in the triangle with Y in it (which is 68) and then because X is supplementary to that angle we just found you can do 180-68 which is 112!

Answer 2

• x = 118°
• y = 84°

Explanation:

We observe that:

• x = y + 22 as exterior angle of the triangle is the sum of non-adjacent interior angles.

Also:

• x = 118 as corresponding angles formed by two parallel lines and a common transversal.

Find the value of y:

• y = x - 22
• y = 118 - 22
• y = 84
