Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratios of triangle side lengths are ...

4 : 6 : 8 = 2 : 3 : 4

This is an arithmetic progression.

The only arithmetic progression of side lengths that makes a right triangle is ...

3 : 4 : 5

The triangle is not a right triangle, so AB is not a tangent.

Answer:

y=124°

x=67°

Step-by-step explanation:

For the triangle on the right

180-74-50=56°

then y= 180-56=124°

For the triangle on the middle (that small triangle)

180-85(Head opposite angles)-50=45°

x=180-45-68=67°
