Question

Trapezoid WXYZ is isosceles. Angle WXY measures (6x + 10) and angle XYZ measures (5x + 5). Find the measure of angle YZW.

Answer 1

ok, so angle wxy and xyz add up to equal 180 degrees

Answer 2

so if you take those two together, 11x+15 = 180

Answer 3

subtract 15 from 180

Answer 4

so 165 = 11x

Answer 5

divide 165 by 11 and you get x

Answer 6

angle yzw is = to xyz

Answer 7

if x = 15, then yzw is 5(15) + 5

Answer 8

which gives u 80 degrees
