Question
Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a horizontal line with arrows at both ends. Another line with arrows at both ends extends from top right to bottom left and intersects the horizontal line in the center. The intersecting line creates 4 angles. The angle at the top left is labeled x degrees. The angle at top right is labeled y degrees. The angles at bottom left and right below the horizontal line are not labeled.
Use the relationship between supplementary angles to determine the value of y° if x°=125° .

Since supplementary angles add up to 180°, we can solve for y° by subtracting x° from 180°.
y° = 180° - 125° = 55°
Therefore, the value of y° is 55°.
