Question

question find the measure of the missing angles. answer attempt 1 out of 2 x = o y = o

Explanation:

Step1: Use vertical - angle property

Vertical angles are equal. Angle $x$ and the $38^{\circ}$ angle are vertical angles. So $x = 38^{\circ}$.

Step2: Use angle - sum property

The sum of angles on a straight - line is $180^{\circ}$. The right - angle is $90^{\circ}$ and one of the non - right angles adjacent to $y$ is $38^{\circ}$. So $y=180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}-38^{\circ}=52^{\circ}$.

Answer:

$x = 38^{\circ}$, $y = 52^{\circ}$
