Question

The diagram shows a triangle.
y+12°
2y–18°
2y+16°
What is the value of y?
y =
°

Answer 1

Answer:

34°

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm a little confused by your question. But I solved the question this way.

y+12+2y-18+2y+16=180

Why 180° you ask? Because the angle sum interior of a triangle always measures 180°.

(y+2y+2y)+(12+−18+16)=180

5y+10=180

Subtract

5y+10−10=180−10

5y=170

divide

5y/5=170/5

y=34
