Question

Find the value of x and the value of y.

Answer 1

B.

Explanation:

If you extend the middle line, you will find that the two angles that the line makes are 60° and 40° by alternate interior angles.

Then, you can just make an equation:

2x + 2x - y + y + 60 + 40 = 360

4x = 260

x = 65°

Now you can use same side interior angles to make another equation:

2x - y + 60 = 180

130 + 60 - y = 180

y = 10
