Question

find the measure of the missing angles.
answer attempt 1 out of 2
x = □° y = □°

Explanation:

Step1: Find \( x \)

We know that \( x + 45^{\circ}=90^{\circ} \) (complementary angles).
So, \( x = 90^{\circ}-45^{\circ} \).

Step2: Find \( y \)

We know that \( y + x+90^{\circ}=180^{\circ} \) (supplementary angles).
Since \( x = 45^{\circ} \), then \( y=180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}-45^{\circ} \).

Answer:

\( x = 45 \), \( y = 45 \)
