Answer:


m\angle{W} = {75{^\circ}}


m\angle{Y} = {15{^\circ}}


m\angle{Z} = {90{^\circ}}

Explanation:

All angles in a triangle must add up to
180{^\circ}

First we can use an equation to find
x


(x - 15) + (2x - 165) + 90 = 180


3x - 180 = 90


3x = 270


x = 90

Now we can solve for
\angle Wand
\angle Y through substitution


\angle{W} = 90 - 15 \rightarrow \boxed{75{^\circ}}


\angle{Y} = 2x - 165 \rightarrow 2(90) - 165 \rightarrow 180 - 165 \rightarrow \boxed{15{^\circ}}

Now we can classify the triangle

It is right because it has a
90{^\circ} angle

These are the answers
