Answer:

y=10, x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, PT should be equal to TR and QT should be equal to TS. So, y=x+3 and 2y=3x-1. Multiplying the first equation by 3 gives you 3y=3x+9. Using elimination to subtract these two equations gives you y=10. And since y=x+3, substitute y=10 there. 10=x+3, x=7.

Using linear pairs,

$115+5x=180\\\\5x=65\\\\x=\boxed{13}$

By the exterior angle theorem,

$2y=45+5(13)\\\\2y=45+65\\\\2y=110\\\\y=\boxed{55}$

Find the value of x.

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum or interior angles of a triangle is 180,

6x + 19 + 5x - 15 + 3x - 6 = 180

6x + 5x + 3x + 19 - 15 - 6 = 180

14x + 19 - 21 = 180

14x - 2 = 180

14x = 180 + 2

14x = 182

x = 182 / 14

x = 13
