Write and solve an equation

Answer 2

So overall there are 360 degrees in this diagram so
360=x+y+180. the 180 comes from the 50+40 degrees on the left plus the 90 degrees to the right which is adjacent to y and x.

Answer 3

okay

Answer 4

so this is the problem:
360 = x + y +180
50 + 40 + 90

Answer 5

Is 90 the answer?

Answer 6

Yes 180= x+y and x=y= 40+50

Answer 7

Okay, Thank you!
