Answer:

m(∠y) = 64°

Explanation:

From the figure attached,

m(∠e) = 90°

m(∠b) + 67° = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

m(∠b) = 180 - 67

= 113°

m(∠c) + 75° = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

m(∠c) = 105°

m(∠a) = m(∠d)

By the property of a polygon,

Sum of the interior angles of a polygon is given by,

Sum of interior angles = (n - 2) × 180°

Here, n = number of sides of the polygon

For n = 5,

Sum of interior angles = (5 - 2)×180°

= 540°

m(∠a) + m(∠b) + m(∠c) + m(∠d) + m(e) = 540°

2m(∠d) + 113° + 105° + 90° = 540°

2m(∠d) + 308 = 540°

2m(∠d) = 540 - 308

m(∠d) = 116°

m(∠d) + m(∠y) = 180°

m(∠y) + 116° = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

m(∠y) = 64°
