Question

Think carefully about the angle relationship the following represents.

What is the value of ∠ZXY?

Answer 1

We know that this is a 90° Angle.

We already have 35° so we subtract that from 90

90-35=55

So the value of ∠ZXY = 55°

Also, the value of X is equal to 12

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

55°

Explanation:

Since ∠WXY has a square on ∠X, ∠WXY is a 90° angle. This means that the angles in between ∠WXY also sum up to 90°.

⇒ 35 + 4x + 7 = 90

⇒ 4x = 90 - 35 - 7

⇒ 4x = 48

⇒ x = 48/4 = 12

Substitute the value of x into the expression "4x + 7"

⇒ ∠ZXY = 4x + 7 = 4(12) + 7 = 48 + 7 = 55°
