Angle 1 is 107
Angle 2 is 73
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
for a right angled triangle, the sum of the square of the two sides should be equal to the square of the hypotenuse. If this rule does not hold, the dimensions do not represent the side of a right angled triangle.
The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²
where a = length
b = base
c = hypotenuse
4² + 10² ≠ 16²
6² + 12² = 13²
7² + 24² = 25²
8² + 15² = 17²
This relationship again shows that since w and y are perpendicular to each other that the smaller angles will add up to give 90 degrees.
3x + 3 + 15 = 90
3x + 18 = 90
3x = 90 - 18
3x = 72
X =72/3
X = 36 degrees
