Answer:
x = 20°
y = 70°
Step-by-step explanation:
the angle adjacent to the 40° angle must be 140° because the two angles form a straight line (which contains 180°)
in the isosceles triangle with the 'x', that means the other two angles must be equal and are (180-140) ÷ 2, which equals 20°
to find 'y', consider the larger right triangle with angles of 90° and 20°; angle y must equal 180 - (90 + 20) = 70°
-37 = <u>n
</u> 23
<u>
</u>to solve for n, undo what is happening to the n. if the n is being divided by 23 to get -37, then multiply both sides by 23 to figure out what n is.
<u>
</u>-37 * 23 = <u>n * 23
</u> 23
<u>
</u>-851 = n
