in the diagram, POS,QOT and UOR are straight lines. Find the value of y.

Answer:
y = 15°
Step-by-step explanation:
Since ∠QOR and ∠UOT are vertical, they are congruent so ∠UOT = 5y. Since POS is a straight line (which has a measure of 180°) and ∠POS = ∠POU + ∠UOT + ∠TOS, we can write:
5y + 5y + 2y = 180
12y = 180
y = 15°
