How do i prove angle x and angle yzv are supplementary

So once you have 60 and 90 in triangle YZV, you know the last angle(Z) is 30. But since angle Z is 30 and angle X is 60, they are complementary and not supplementary(which adds up to 180)

Rainbow [258]
To get a sum of eight the first die must be 2 or greater and the second die must be one specific value that makes the sum equal to 8 with respect to the first die.
