Answer:

we know that a triangle's angles MUST add up to 180 degrees.

We can look at the triangle with the angles of 55, 80, and y. As the angles must add to 180, 55+80+y must be 180. Therefore, we find that y is equal to 45.

We can look at the triangle with the angles of 100, 60, and x. As the angles must add to 180, 100+60+x must be 180. Therefore, we find that x is equal to 20.

We then look at the triangle formed from x, y, and z. As the angles must add to 180, x+y+z must be 180. x is 20, y is 45, so 20+45+z = 180. Thus, z is 115.

So:

y = 45

x = 20

z = 115.

Answer:

Explanation:

what do you know about the angles of a triangle? They make 180° right?

since you know that, now you can find angle Y , by using the triangle on the left, and you can find X by using the triangle on the right, then, when you know X & Y , use both of those to find Z :) got it?
