The figure is not drawn to scale. VXYZ is a trapezium and VX // ZY. Given that VZ = VW, ∠ZVW = 76° and ∠VXY = 102°.
- Find ∠XYZ
- Find ∠VWZ
- Find ∠WZY
(a)
∠XYZ
= 180° - 102°
= 78° (Interior angles, VX//ZY)
(b)
∠VWZ
= (180° - 76°) ÷ 2
= 104° ÷ 2
= 52° (Isosceles triangle)
(c)
∠WZY
= ∠VWZ
= 52° (Alternate angles, VX//ZY)
Answer(s): (a) 78°; (b) 52°; (c) 52°
