Triangle solving for x and y

[Kayla08]

:? How do I solve for x and y in a triangle if they do not give me any variables.

do they compare it to another triangle?
is it a scaled drawing in which you can measure sides.

Do you have angles also given?

How do I solve for x and y in a triangle if they do not give me any variables.

That would depend on what information is given, and how x and/or y relate to the triangle.

Please post the full and exact text of the exercise, the complete instructions, a detailed description of any associated graphic, and a listing of what you have tried thus far.

Thank you.
