Question

Find the measure of angle x in the figure below: A triangle is shown. At the top vertex of the triangle is a horizontal line aligned to the base of the triangle. The angle formed between the horizontal line and the left edge of the triangle is shown as 52 degrees, the angle formed between the horizontal line and the right edge of the triangle is shown as 59 degrees. The angle at the top vertex of the triangle is labeled as y, and the interior angle on the right is labeled as 63 degrees. The interior angle on the left is labeled as x. 35° 48° 69° 78°.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 73°

x = 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

The three angles 51° , 56° and y form a straight angle.

This means that:

51 + 56 + y = 180

107 + y = 180

y = 180 - 107

y = 73°
