Question

Two lines meet at a point that is also the endpoint of two rays. Set up and solve the

appropriate equations to solve for the values of angles x and y.
​

Answer 1

Angle x=19°

Angle Y=53°

I might be wrong though.

Explanation:

Since a right angle is 90° and a straight line is 180°,the other side(71+x)=90.Therefore,90-71=19,which is angle x.

There is another straight line,since angle x is 19°.All you have to do is subtract 71+37+19 from 180 to get Angle Y.The answer is 53°.

Angle X=90-71=19

Angle Y=180-37-71-19=53.
