Given: Figure
To find: Value of angle x and y
Solution:
In the given triangle, it is given that AB = CB. This implies that ∆ABC is an isosceles triangle. We know that in an isosceles triangle, two angles are of equal measure. So we get:
- ∠ACB = ∠BAC = y
Apply angle sum property in ∆ABC
=> ∠ACB + ∠ABC + ∠BAC = 180°
=> y + 90° + y = 180°
=> 2y = 180° - 90°
=> y = 90°/2
=> y = 45°
Consider line segment BAD
=> x + ∠BAC = 180° (Linear pair)
=> x + y = 180°
=> x + 45° = 180°
=> x = 180° - 45°
=> x = 135°
Required answer:
- x = 45°
- y = 135°
