Question

Please help!!!!! geometry

Answer 1

58

Explanation:

First, draw out your triangle on a piece of paper, and label each point w, x, and y

We are then told that side wx and yw are similar. This means that we have an isosceles triangle with two similar sides.

We are also told that angle w is equal to 64 degrees

with this information, we can assume that angle y is the same as angle x

Another important thing to note is that all triangle measures equals to 180

SO

we can make this expression:

64 + x + x = 180

Now to solve for x:

64 + x + x = 180

64 + 2x = 180

2x = 116

x = 58
