Question

What is the measure of angle y in the figure?

Answer 1

The measures of angle y is 30 °.

Explanation:

We know that, the sum of two side of right angle is 90 °.

60 ° + y = 90 °

subtract 60 ° from each side

y = 90 ° - 60

y = 30 °

Therefore, the measures of angle y is 30°.

Answer 2

y = 27

Explanation:

The sum of the two angles is a right angle, which is 90 degrees

y+63 = 90

y = 90-63

y =27
