Question

find the values of x and y in the following figure​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 90°

y = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 130° = 180°                        (Linear Pair)

y = 180 - 130

  = 50°

x + y = 40° = 180°                    (Angle Sum Property Of A Triangle)

substituting y,

x + 50° + 40° = 180°

x + 90° = 180°

x = 180° - 90°

  = 90°

∴ x = 90°

  y = 50°
