6x + 3y = 79.5
3x + 2y = 41     y = -3/2x + 41/2      y = -1.5x + 20.5

6x + 3(-1.5x + 20.5) = 79.5
6x - 4.5x + 61.5 = 79.5
1.5x + 61.5 = 79.5
1.5x = 18
x = 12

Each shirt costs $12.
Now insert that number into the x to find the cost of each tie.

3(12) + 2y = 41
36 + 2y = 41
2y = 5
y = 2.5

Each tie costs $2.50.

There are 360 degrees in the rhombus which means the equilateral triangles has 180 degrees (because it is half the rhombus and also it is the angle sum of a triangle). It is equilateral meaning all sides and angles are the same so they all must be 60 (180/3)
Now this must mean that angle a is equal to the opposing angle being 60
