Answer:

the answer for both angles is 45

Explanation:

bc the one it isn't asking for is a 90 degree angle and the angles must add up to 180 degrees and the 2 angles are the same and 45+45=90 and 90+90=180

Answer:

  • x = 35.69°
  • y = 54.31°

Explanation:

Use trigonometry to find one of missing angles:

  • sine = opposite / hypotenuse
  • sin x = 7/12
  • x = arcsin (7/12)
  • x = 35.69°

Find the other missing angle:

  • y = 90° - x
  • y = 90° - 35.69°
  • y = 54.31°
