Question

XY bisects ∠AXB. If ∠YXB = 37.5°, what is the measure of ∠AXB?

Answer 1

75 degrees

Explanation:

Line XY bisects angle AXB. To bisect something means to divide something into two equal parts. Angle YXB would therefore be half of angle AXB. Since angle YXB is equal to 35.7 degrees, the other half of angle AXB must also be 35.7 degrees. As a result, all that we have to do is add 37.5 degrees to 37.5 degrees, which equals 75 degrees. This is our answer.
