Question

Find the values of x and y.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!!!

When you closely see in figure, we find that,

90° and (2y + 5)° are supplementary,

So, 90° + 2y +5°=180° { supplementary angle is always 180°}.

or, 2y = 180°-95°

$y = \frac{85}{2}$

Therefore the measure of angle y is 42.5°.

Again, (5x-17)° + (3x - 11)° = 180° (They are linear pair).

8x - 28° = 180°

8x = 180°+28°

$x = \frac{280}{8}$

Therefore the measure of angle x is 26°.

Hope it helps...
