Answer:

y = 24

angle V = 67

as a 4 sided shape, the angles all have to add up to 360 degrees.

we already have the answers for R, 120, and B, 53. We have 187 degrees left to work with.

Based of the information the tics on the sides of the figure gives us, we know that angle P and R are the same! First (just for fun, this isn't needed) we'll find X.

(x+95) = 120

-95 -95

x = 25

We know 3/4 angles now, so by subtracting their sum from 360, we'll find angle V!

360 - 53 -120 - 120 = 67

Angle V is 67

Now to find y!

(2y+19)=67

-19 -19

2y = 48

/2 /2

y = 24
