Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the Isosceles Triangle Theorem, angle B and angle C have the same measure.  If angle B is 75, then so is angle C.  By the Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem, all the angles of a triangle have to add up to equal 180 degrees.  That means that angle A = 180 - 75 - 75 which is 30 degrees.  Therefore,

Angle A = 30 degrees.   By the substitution property of equality,

4y + 10 = 30 and

4y = 20 so

y = 5
