Explanation:

here's your solution

=> for first figure , (x + 120° ) = 180° [ linear pair]

=> x = 180° - 120°

=> x = 60°

=> now , we know sum of all angles of traingle = 180°

= >so, 60° + 70° + y = 180°

=> y= 180° - 130°

=> y = 50

now in figure second

=> 4y - 4 + 3y = 52° [ exterior angle equal to sum of two opposite interior

=> 7y - 4 = 52°

=> 7y = 52° + 4°

=> 7y = 56°

=> y = 56°/7

=> 8°

hope it helps

Answer:

1st pic:

x = 60

y = 50

2nd pic:

y = 8

∠W = 28

∠Y = 128 degrees

∠X = 24

Explanation:

first pic:

to find x, subtract 120 from 180 ⇒ 180 - 120 = 60

to find y, add 60 & 70 & subtract the sum from 180 ⇒ 180 - (60 + 70) = 50

2nd pic:

to find ∠Y, subtract 52 from 180:

180 - 52 = 128

to find y, use the following equation:

3y + 4y - 4 + 128 = 180

combine like terms:

7y + 124 = 180

subtract 124 from each side:

7y + 124 - 124 = 180 - 124

7y = 56

divide 7 on both sides:


(7y)/(7) = (56)/(7)

y = 8

now we can find angles W and X

∠W = 4y - 4

we know that y = 8 so just substitute 8 for y

∠W = 4 x 8 - 4

∠W = 28

∠X = 3y

likewise, subtitute 8 for y

∠X = 3 x 8

∠W = 24

to check, add all angles and if they add up to 180, then its right:

24 + 28 + 128 = 180

180 = 180
