Answer:

x = z = 45°, y = 90°

Explanation:

This is an isosceles triangle ( given 2 equal sides )

Hence x = z ( base angles )

z and 135° form a straight angle and are supplementary

z = 180° - 135° = 45°

hence x = z = 45°

the sum of the 3 angles in the triangle = 180°

To find y subtract the sum of x and z from 180

y = 180° - (45 + 45)° = 180° - 90° = 90°
