Answer: x = 135 degrees and y = 225 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem we first use the equation (n-2)*180 [n being the number of sides] to find the sum of interior angles in the figure. We plug the values in: (8-2)*180 = 6*180 degrees = 1080 degrees. We divide this by 8 to get the measure of an interior angle: 1080 degrees/8 = 135 degrees. Since all the interior angles of a regular polygon are congruent, we can say that angle x + angle y = 360 degrees. Thus subtract x degrees from 360 degrees to get y: 360 degrees - 135 degrees = 225 degrees. Therefore, x = 135 degrees and y = 225 degrees.
