Answer with explanation:

In the figure Line segment L M is drawn.

Draw Ray NQ passing through Passing through N , which lies on line segment LM.

Placing the Compass nib on the point N,and then Draw an arc cutting line LM at point S and ray NQ at point P.------(1)

To draw a line parallel to line LM

Keeping the Width of Compass Same, place the compass at Q, and draw an arc similar to arc drawn in step 1 alternate to ∠QNM. Suppose it cuts ray NQ at point A,from A mark an arc on the semicircle drawn,suppose the arc cuts the semicircle at point G.Draw segment QG,passing through Q and G.

Find the values of x and y
qaws [65]

Answer:

y=30

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle has all sides equal therefore all the angles are equal.

For all the angles to be equal and add up to 180 (sum of angles in a triangle is 180), each angle has to be 60.

Therefore y=90-60

=30

x=180-(30+90)

=60
