Answer:
49°
Step-by-step explanation:
The given information that BC=DC tells you triangle BCD is an isosceles triangle and that angle y is one of the two equal base angles. Then ...
y + y + 82 = 180 . . . . . the sum of angle measures is 180 degrees
2y = 98 . . . . subtract 82
y = 49 . . . . . divide by 2
The measure of y is 49°.
The y axis for dependent variables and x axis for independent
