Answer:
m∠y=50°
m∠x=50°
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The angles in matching corners are called <u><em>corresponding angles</em></u>. When the two lines are parallel Corresponding Angles are equal
so
m∠y=50° -----> by corresponding angles
and
The angles that are formed on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the two lines are <u><em>alternate interior angles</em></u>. When the lines are parallel, the alternate interior angles are equal.
so
m∠x=m∠y -----> by alternate interior angles
so
m∠x=50°
therefore
m∠y=50°
m∠x=50°
It helps when you count decimal places to line up the numbers
