Given:


YA is the angle bisector of
\angle XYZ.


m\angle XYZ=52^\circ

To find:

The measure of
m\angle ZYA.

Solution:

It is given that
YA is the angle bisector of
\angle XYZ. It means


m\angle XYA=m\angle ZYA ...(i)

Now,


m\angle XYA+m\angle ZYA=m\angle XYZ


m\angle ZYA+m\angle ZYA=52^\circ [Using (i)]


2m\angle ZYA=52^\circ

Divide both sides by 2.


m\angle ZYA=(52^\circ)/(2)


m\angle ZYA=26^\circ

Therefore, the required value is
m\angle ZYA=26^\circ.
