The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the reasoning provided in the video transcript. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the relationship between the angles**: Since angle X and angle Y are supplementary angles, we know that: \[ \text{angle X} + \text{angle Y} = 180^\circ \] 2. **Set up the ratio**: We are given that the ratio of angle X to angle Y is: \[ \frac{\text{angle X}}{\text{angle Y}} = \frac{25}{11} \] This can be rewritten as: \[ \text{angle X} = \frac{25}{11} \times \text{angle Y} \] 3. **Substitute angle X in the supplementary angle equation**: Now, we can substitute the expression for angle X into the supplementary angle equation: \[ \frac{25}{11} \times \text{angle Y} + \text{angle Y} = 180^\circ \] 4. **Combine the terms**: To combine the terms on the left side, we can factor out angle Y: \[ \text{angle Y} \left(\frac{25}{11} + 1\right) = 180^\circ \] Converting 1 into a fraction with a common denominator: \[ 1 = \frac{11}{11} \] So we have: \[ \text{angle Y} \left(\frac{25}{11} + \frac{11}{11}\right) = 180^\circ \] This simplifies to: \[ \text{angle Y} \left(\frac{36}{11}\right) = 180^\circ \] 5. **Solve for angle Y**: To isolate angle Y, multiply both sides by the reciprocal of \(\frac{36}{11}\): \[ \text{angle Y} = 180^\circ \times \frac{11}{36} \] Simplifying this: \[ \text{angle Y} = \frac{1980}{36} = 55^\circ \] 6. **Find angle X**: Now that we have angle Y, we can find angle X using the supplementary angle equation: \[ \text{angle X} = 180^\circ - \text{angle Y} = 180^\circ - 55^\circ = 125^\circ \] ### Final Answer: - \(\text{angle X} = 125^\circ\) - \(\text{angle Y} = 55^\circ\)
