Question

deltamath vertical/adjacent/complementary angles l2 score: 25 penalty: 1 off question find the measure of the missing angles.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall complementary - angle property

Complementary angles add up to 90°. Angle \(x\) and the 29 - degree angle are complementary. So \(x + 29^{\circ}=90^{\circ}\).

Step2: Solve for \(x\)

\(x=90^{\circ}- 29^{\circ}=61^{\circ}\).

Step3: Recall vertical - angle property

Vertical angles are equal. Angle \(y\) and the 29 - degree angle are vertical angles. So \(y = 29^{\circ}\).

Answer:

\(x = 61^{\circ}\), \(y = 29^{\circ}\)
