Answer:

  1. ∠W = 130
  2. ∠X = 140
  3. ∠Y = 50
  4. ∠Z = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Using 'y' and 'z' to represent angles with the corresponding names, we have ...

  y + z = 90

  (3b -1) +(2b +6) = 90 . . . . substitute the given expressions

  5b +5 = 90 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  b +1 = 18 . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

  b = 17 . . . . . . . . subtract 1

Then the angles are ...

  y = 3b -1 = 3(17) -1 = 51 -1 = 50

  z = 2b +6 = 2(17) +6 = 34 +6 = 40 . . . . note that these are complementary, as theys should be

Angles W and Y form a linear pair, so are supplementary:

  W = 180 -Y = 180 -50 = 130

Angles X and Z form a linear pair, so are supplementary:

  X = 180 -Z = 180 -40 = 140

Then the angle measures are ...

  1. ∠W = 130
  2. ∠X = 140
  3. ∠Y = 50
  4. ∠Z = 40
