Answer:
m∠YWZ=36°
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite rays are two rays that both start from a common point and go off in exactly opposite directions. Because of this the two rays (WX and WZ) form a single straight line through the common endpoint W.
If rays WX and WZ are opposite, then angle XWZ is straight angle. A straight angle always has the measure of 180°.
Point Y is in the interior of ∠XWZ, then angles XWY and EWZ are supplementary angles (together form straight angle XWZ). Supplementary angles always add up to 180°, then
m∠XWY+m∠YWZ=180°
You are given that
m∠XWY=4(m∠YWZ).
Substitute it into the previous equality:
4(m∠YWZ)+m\angle YWZ=180°
5(m∠YWZ)=180°
m∠YWZ=36°
