Answer:
total angles in triangle = 180
180 = 44+56+ y
y = 180-44-56
y = 80°
now to find z and x
we know the 2 straight lines are parallel (indicated by arrows)
x = 56°
z = 44°
how?
alternate angles theorem
Alternate angles are angles that occur on opposite sides of the transversal line and have the same size. Alternate angles are equal: We can often spot interior alternate angles by drawing a Z shape: There are two different types of alternate angles, alternate interior angles and alternate exterior angles.
