The question, in short

Use angle facts on a straight line and in an isosceles triangle to find the unknown angles x and y.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and the diagram.

Part (a) · 1 mark

Angles on a straight line with one angle 37°; find x.

  1. 1Angles on a straight line add to 180°
  2. 2x = 180 − 37 = 143

Answer143

Part (b) · 2 marks

Isosceles triangle PQR with PQ = PR and angle QPR = 46°; find y, the angle at Q.

  1. 1PQ = PR, so angle PQR = angle PRQ (base angles of an isosceles triangle)
  2. 2y = (180 − 46) ÷ 2 = 134 ÷ 2 = 67
