Algebra applications: find the value of x and y
1 answer:
Answer : The value of x and y is 8 and 10 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation :
As we known that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal line then consecutive interior angles are supplementary.
From the given figure we conclude that:
...........(1)
............(2)
...........(3)
...........(4)
Now we adding equation 2 and 4, we get the value of x.
Now we are putting the value of x in 4, we get the value of y.
Therefore, the value of x and y is 8 and 10 respectively.

<h3>What is an angle?</h3>The angle is the distance between the intersecting lines or surfaces.
Corresponding angle – If two lines are parallel, then the third line. The corresponding angles are equal angles.
Vertically opposite angle – When two lines intersect, then their opposite angles are equal.
Linear angle – If the total of two angles is 180 degrees, they are said to be linear angles.
∠1 = ∠5 = ∠9 = 105° (corresponding angles)
∠1 = ∠4 = 105° (Vertical opposite angles)
∠1 + ∠2 = 180° (linear angle)
∠2 = 75°
∠2 = ∠3 = 75° (Vertical opposite angles)
∠3 = ∠8 = ∠12 = 75° (corresponding angles)
If angle ∠1 = 105°, angle ∠12 = (3x + 15)°, and angle ∠7 = (8y-5)°.
Then the value of x and y will be
∠9 = ∠12
∠1 = ∠12
105° = (3x + 15)°
3x = 90°
x = 30°
∠6 = ∠7
75° = (8y – 5)°
8y = 80°
y = 10°
