What is the value of Y

y = 150º

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of internal angles of a triangle must be 180º and the sum of y + (x-20) forms a straight line which is also 180º, so:

2x + x + (x - 20) = 180

4x - 20 = 180

4x = 200

x = 50

x - 20 = 50 - 20

x - 20 = 30

y = 180 - 30

y = 150º

me! what did you put for this question?

step-by-step explanation:

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,
