Question

In the given diagram, find the values of x, y, and z.

a. x = 36°, y = 36°, z = 34°
b. x = 44º, y = 44°, z = 44°
c. x = 34º, y = 34°, z = 34°
d. x = 36°, y = 34°, z = 34°

Answer 1

a. x = 36°, y = 36°, z = 34°

Explanation:

X = 36° because x and 144° are supplementary angles and the sum of supplementary angles = 180°

The sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180° since one of the angle is given as 110° the sum of z and y must be equal to 70° the option that fits these qualities is a. x = 36°, y = 36°, z = 34°
