Question

Find the unknown angles in the given figure:

Sum

Solution

In the figure,

x = 60° .........(Alternate angles)

Let each equal angle of an isosceles triangle be a
then a + a + x = 180° ..........(Angles of a triangle)

⇒ 2a + x = 180°

⇒ 2a + 60° = 180° 

⇒ 2a = 180° − 60° = 120° 

⇒ a =`(120°)/2=60°`

∴ y = x + a = 60° = 120° 

Hence x = 60° and y = 120°
