Answer:

x=25

y= 64.5

Explanation:

When lines are parallel, 2x=2(the number)

But, 2 isn't an angle. However, 50degrees is congruent to 2 since they are verticle angles.

2x=50

x=25

When lines are parallel, 2y+1=1(the number)

But, 1 doesn't have a verticle angle. However, 180-50 would be equal to 1

180-50=2y+1

130=2y+1

129=2y

y= 64.5
