Question

In the diagram below, BD is parallel to XY. What is the value of Y?

A. 125
B. 85
C. 65
D. 105

Answer 1

85

Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct option is B. The value of y is 85.

Explanation:

Given information: BD is parallel to XY.

If a transversal line intersect two parallel lines, then alternate interior angles are same.

From the given figure it is clear that a transversal line intersect two parallel lines BD and XY.

`y=85`
`[\because \text{alternate interior angles}]`

The value of y is 85. Therefore option B is correct.
