Question

Given triangle MTW is congruent to triangle BGK,find y.

Answer 1

y = 8

Explanation:

As MTW and BGK are congruent

angle T = angle G

4x - 3 = 45

in triangle MTW

angle M = 180 - (T + W)

= 180 - (45 + 41)

= 180 - 86

= 94

and angle M = B

11y + 6 = 94

11y = 94 - 6

11y = 88

y = 8
