What is the value of y?
A.56
B.44
C.68
D.112

Answer:
The value of y is 68° .
Option (C) is correct .
Step-by-step explanation:
As the figure given in the question be as follow .
Now apply angle sumproperty in the triangle .
(According to this property the total sum of the triangle is 180°.)
y° + (y - 12)° + 56 ° = 180 °
y + y - 12 + 56 = 180
2y + 44 = 180
2y = 180 - 44
2y = 136
[tex]y = \frac{136}{2}[/tex]
y = 68°
Therefore the value of y is 68° .
Option (C) is correct .
Answer:
Choice C is correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
From question statement, we observe that first interior angle = 56°
second interior angle = y-12°
and
third interior angle = y°
We have to find the value of y°.
Since,we know that sum of all interior angle is 180°.
Hence,we can write
56°+y°+(y-12)° = 180°
hence,
2y°+44° = 180°
Adding -44° to both sides of above equation,we get
2y°+44°-44° = 180°-44°
2y°+0= 136°
Dividing by 2 to both sides of above equation,we get
2y°/2 = 136°/2
y° = 68° which is the answer.
