@Abhisar Would you mind teaching me how to do this? I'm a bit confused.

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

Use the Triangle Sum Property to find the measure of angle y. There are two overlapping triangles that share the angle marked x degrees. The other two angles of the first triangle measure fifty-eight degrees and y degrees. The other two angle measures for the second triangle are fifty-two degrees and eighty-four degrees. (pic below) 44 70 78 38

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

I get what you just explained to me, but this one is confusing me. How do I find y??

OpenStudy (abhisar):

is it 78° ?

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

umm... I'm not sure D: I honestly do not know how to find Y.

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

I don't want the answer, @Abhisar I want to know how to find the answer my self, But I don't know how to find Y. Not even the first step.

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

:c

OpenStudy (abhisar):

It's easy..

OpenStudy (abhisar):

x+52+84=180 =>x=44°

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

How so? I'm sure it will be easy once I know how! ^-^

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

Ohhhhh I see.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Now, x+y+58=180 =>44+y+58=180 =>y=?

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

Its 72! :D

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

NO 78

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

Sorry

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

My bad

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

I read that wrong.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

Wait, what do I do if there is a number in front of the x? Like 4x??

OpenStudy (abhisar):

do the same ! \(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Abhisar 4x+52+84=180 =>4x=44° =>x=11° \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\)

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

?? I'm confused.. What did you do with the 4?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

4x+52+84=180 =>4x=44° =>x=\(\frac{44°}{4}\) =>x=11°

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

I must find the missing numbers, and I know I can do it by my self because you just taught me, but I'm confused by the 4x.

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

OOHh

OpenStudy (cydney_morgan):

ok I see. Can I open up a new question and may you check my work then?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

go ahead !
