Question

find the values of the angles x,y,a in each of the following ​

Answer 1

Answer:

∠x = ∠55° (Vertically opposite angle)

∠x + ∠y = 180° (Adjacent angles)

55° + ∠y = 180° (Linear pair angles)

Therefore, ∠y=180° - 55° = 125°

∠y = ∠z

Hence, ∠x=55° , ∠y=125° and ∠125°

ii) 25° + x + 40° = 180°

65° + x = 180°

Therefore, x = 180° - 65° = 115°

40° + y = 180° (Linear pairs)

Therefore y = 180° - 40° = 140°

y + z = 180° (Linear pairs)
