Rectangle angle questions?

Question:First, look at this diagram:
http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m243/...

if 1 is 74, what is 2?

1. 8
2. 16
3. 32
4. 74

If RS = 24, UT = x + 6, RU = y + 3, and ST = 18, what are the values of X and Y?

1. x = 30, y = 21
2. x = 30, y = 15
3. x = 18, y = 15
4. x = 1, y = 7

Answers:
Since the sides on a rectangle are 90 degrees, 90-74=16

answer 1 is the second choice.

For the second question, looking at the diagram, RS and UT are the same length, as is RU and ST. All you have to do is make them equal to each other and solve for the unknown.

RS=UT
24=x+6
Subtract 6 from both sides
18=x

RU=ST
y+3=18
subtract 3 from each side
y=15

So that answer is x=18, y=15; that is choice 3.
