Answer:

x = 59°, y = 31°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles (x) and (x - 28) sum ups to 90° on a straight line.

→ x + (x - 28) = 90

→ 2x - 28 = 90

→ 2x = 90 + 28

→ 2x = 118

→ x = 59°

Then find value of y

Angle y, x, 90° lies on a straight line which sum ups to 180°

→ x + y + 90° = 180°

→ 59 + y + 90° = 180°

→ y = 180° - 149°

→ y = 31°
