Answer:

[tex]m\angle WYX=46^o[/tex]

[tex]m\angle YWX=63^o[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

we know that

A scalene triangle has three different interior angles and three different length sides

In this problem

[tex]m\angle WYX=46^o[/tex] ----> by vertical angles

[tex]m\angle WXY=71^o[/tex] ----> is given

Find the measure of the third angle ∠YWX

Remember that the sum of the interior angles in any triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

so

[tex]46^o+71^o+m\angle YWX=180^o[/tex]

[tex]m\angle YWX=180^o-117^o=63^o[/tex]

Verify each statement

1) [tex]m\angle WYX=46^o[/tex] ---> is true (see explanation)

2) [tex]m\angle YWX=63^o[/tex] ---> is true (see explanation)

3) [tex]m\angle WXY=46^o[/tex] ---> is not true because ∠WXY is given and is 71 degrees

4) [tex]m\angle YWX=46^o[/tex] ---> is not true because [tex]m\angle YWX=63^o[/tex]

5) [tex]m\angle WYX=134^o[/tex] --> is not true because [tex]m\angle WYX=46^o[/tex]
