Right triangle ABC is similar to triangle XYZ. If the measure of angle C is 36", what is the measure of angle Y?

Answer:
A. 54
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar triangles have the same angle measurements. Solve angle B using the fact that all the angles in a triangle add up to 180:
B = 180-36-90 = 54
Therefore, because the triangles are similar, angle Y is also 54.
