question
find the measure of the missing angles.
answer
attempt 1 out of 3
$x = square^{circ}$ $y = square^{circ}$
submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Find the value of \(x\)

Use the fact that \(x + 65^{\circ}=90^{\circ}\) (complementary angles).
\(x=90^{\circ}- 65^{\circ}\)

Step2: Calculate \(x\)

\(x = 25^{\circ}\)

Step3: Find the value of \(y\)

Use the fact that \(y+x = 180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}=90^{\circ}\) (supplementary to the right - angle part). Since \(x = 25^{\circ}\), then \(y=90^{\circ}-x\)
\(y = 90^{\circ}-25^{\circ}\)

Step4: Calculate \(y\)

\(y=65^{\circ}\)

Answer:

\(x = 25\), \(y = 65\)
