For the figure shown, x = 145 and y = 60. Determine the value of w.
Responses
To determine the value of w, we need to use the properties of angles in a triangle.
Since the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, we can find the value of angle w by subtracting angles x and y from 180 degrees.
w = 180 - x - y
w = 180 - 145 - 60
w = 180 - 205
w = -25
Therefore, the value of w is -25 degrees.
