  1. [tex]x=79^{\circ}\ and\ y=101^{\circ}[/tex]

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In the given picture, a parallelogram PQRS is given with angle 101°.

    In a parallelogram opposite angles are equal.

    Since, y is opposite to 101°.

    Therefore y=101°

    Also,  the sum of the adjacent angles of a parallelogram is 180°

    [tex]\\\Rightarrow\ x+101^{\circ}=180^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow\ x=180^{\circ}-101^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow\ x=79^{\circ}[/tex]

  2. x = 65, y = 115

    Step-by-step explanation:

    x and 2x - 15 are adjacent angles and supplementary, thus

    2x - 15 + x = 180

    3x - 15 = 180 ( add 15 to both sides )

    3x = 195 ( divide both sides by 3 )

    x = 65

    y and 2x - 15 are congruent ( alternate angles ), thus

    y = 2x - 15 = 2(65) - 15 = 130 - 15 = 115

  3. [tex]\frac{5}{y} = \frac{5 + 3 }{y + x}[/tex]

    [tex]5(y + x) = y( 5 + 3)[/tex]

    [tex]5y + 5x = 8y[/tex]

    [tex]5x = 8y - 5y[/tex]

    [tex]5x = 3y[/tex]

    [tex]\frac{x}{y} = \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

    [tex]x = 3[/tex]

    [tex]y = 5[/tex]

  4. X=110 divided by 2=55 because x is half of the 110 . Since it’s quadratic inside the circle the opposite sides equals to 180 so 180-110=70 so Y =70

  5. x = 160°

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Angles in a line add up to 180°

    ∴ 50° + y + 70° = 180°

    y = 180° - (50° + 70°) = 60°

    Angles in a quadrilateral add up to 360°

    Since angle x is equal to the other unknown angle;

    x = (360° - 40°) ÷ 2 = 160°
