Question

How do i find x and y?​

Answer 1

Answer:

y=65

x=50

Step-by-step explanation:

exterior angle of a triamgle is equal to sum of two interior angles

so

2y=130(as it is isosceles triangle)

y=65

we know y+y+x=180(sum of all angles of triangle)and (vertically opposite angle)

therefore, x=50

Answer 2

Answer:

x=50°

y=65°

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess it would be better if there were alphabets representing each vertices otherwise it would difficult for you to understand

Let's take the point of intersection as O

Since It is a straight line(on both sides of O)=180°

Therefore x=180°-130°=50°

In the second triangle the angle at the top = 50° because x and that angle are vertically opposite to each other and therefore are equal

When the two sides of a triangle are equal, The base angles are always equal

Second triangle is 180°

The top angle is 50°

the base angles (which y and the angle below it)

is equal to 180°-50°=130°

Since base angles are equal and their sum is 130°, One base angle which is Y = 130°÷2=65°
