Answer:
x = 8
y = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
5x = 40 degrees ( alternate interior angle).
so x = 8
And as the angle adjacent to 40 degrees is 90-50 then
3y = 180 - 50 - 40
3y = 90 degrees
y = 90/3
y = 30
A simpler way to find y is
3y = 90 ( 2 inside angles between parallel lines add up to 180)
so y = 30
