Question

Find (i) x ,y ,z and w (ii) x + y + z + w Please lemme know with explanation

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 60°, y = 100°, z = 120°, w = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

x and 120° are adjacent angles on a straight line and sum to 180°

x + 120° = 180° ( subtract 120° from both sides )

x = 60°

Similarly

y + 80° = 180° ( subtract 80° from both sides )

y = 100°

and

z + 60° = 180° ( subtract 60° from both sides )

z = 120°

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The sum of the interior angles in a quadrilateral = 360°

sum the interior angles of the quadrilateral and equate to 360°

60° + 80° + 120° + 4th angle = 360°

260° + 4th angle = 360° ( subtract 260° from both sides )

4th angle = 100°

w and 100° are adjacent angles on a straight line and sum to 180° , so

w + 100° = 180° ( subtract 100° from both sides )

w = 80°
