The values of three angles at a point are 3y - 45o, y + 25o and yo . Find the value of y.

  • A. 40o
  • B. 58o
  • C. 68o
  • D. 76o

Correct Answer: D. 76o

Explanation

(3y - 450 + (y + 25) + t = 360o(angles at a point)

3y - 45 + y + 25 + y = 360

5y = 360 + 20

5y = 380

y = \(\frac{380}{5}\)

= 76o
