Find the value of x and y<br><br><br>Please help me. Thank you

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let each angle=A

A+A+A=180

3A=180

A=180/3=60°

as the angles are equal so sides are equal.

16+y=46

y=46-16=30

applying sine formula

$\frac{30}{sin z} =\frac{46}{sin~80} \\sin~z=\frac{30}{46} \times ~sin~80=\frac{15}{23} \times sin ~80\\z=sin^{-1}( \frac{15}{23} \times sin ~80) \approx~39.96^\circ \approx40^\circ$

z+x=60

40+x=60

x=60-40=20°

I need help with this math question

Percent means per one hundred so we can say that:

p/100≈(28)/(28+81+45+63+35) guessing with my old eyes :)

p/100≈28/252

p≈2800/252

p≈11.11%

So rounded to the nearest 5% you'd have:

p≈10%
