Question

1. Given below is a linear pair, determine x and y if
the difference between the two angles is 104°
please please please answer this question friends
​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=142° y=38°

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=180. (1)

&

x-y=104. (2)

ie x=104+y

putting x in 1

104+y+y=180

2y=76

y=38°

x+38=180

x=142°

Answer 2

Answer:

x+y=180 , first equation

x-y=104 , second equation

adding the two equations ,

x + y = 180

x - y = 104

___________

2x = 284

x = 142°

from equation 1,

x+y=180

put value of x,

142 + y=180

y = 180-142

y = 38°

answer -. x=142°

y = 38°
