Answer:

B. x = 86, y = 75, z = 94

Explanation:

As always, the sum of angles of a triangle is 180°. When two angles of a triangle are given, they can be subtracted from 180° to find the missing value.

x = 180 -35 -59 = 86

y = 180 -(35+11) -59 = 75

z = 180 -11 -75 = 94

_____

As a check, we must also have x+z=180.
