Question

Based on the diagram below, what is the interior measure of ∠Y ?

Answer 1

∠Y = 104°

Explanation:

vertical angles are equal ⇒ ∠DAN = ∠SAY = 48°

Sum of interior angles of a triangle = 180°

⇒ ∠SYA + 56 + 48 = 180

⇒ ∠SYA = 76°

Angles on a straight line add up to 180°

⇒ ∠Y + ∠SYA = 180°

⇒ ∠Y + 76 = 180

⇒ ∠Y = 104°
