2x + 100 = 5x + 55
3x = 45
x = 15

2(15) + 100 = 130

180-130 = 50

so angle 2 is 50 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

we know that

In the right triangle XYZ

$cos(Y)=\frac{ZY}{XY}$ ---> adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse

substitute the values

$cos(30\°)=\frac{ZY}{4}$

Remember that

$cos(30\°)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

substitute

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{ZY}{4}$

$ZY=(4)\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

$ZY=2\sqrt{3}\ units$

step 2

$sin(Y)=\frac{XZ}{XY}$ --> opposite side divided by the hypotenuse

substitute the values

$sin(30\°)=\frac{XZ}{4}$

Remember that

$sin(30\°)=\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{XZ}{4}$

$XZ=2\ units$

step 3

$tan(Y)=\frac{XZ}{ZY}$ --> opposite side divided by adjacent side

substitute the values

$tan(Y)=\frac{2}{2\sqrt{3}}$

$tan(Y)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$

Simplify

$tan(Y)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}$

I believe the answer is 88 because the 120 will create a straight angle which is 180. Then you do 180-120=60. This is the measure I the left angle. Now your answer will be 88
