The measure of angle y formed by the two intersecting lines can be determined by subtracting the measure of the angle opposite to it from 180 degrees (since the angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees).
So, angle y = 180 degrees - 76 degrees = 104 degrees.
Therefore, the measure of angle y is 104 degrees.
Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows two intersecting lines forming the angles x, y, z, and an angle measuring 76 degrees. Angle x is opposite to angle z while angle y is opposite to the angle measuring 76 degrees.
What is the measure of angle y
formed by the two intersecting lines?
