Answer: B. y + z = x


Explanation:

Given: A triangle ABC in which
\angle{B} is labelled as 'y' and
\angle{C} is labelled as 'z' and x is an exterior angle to
\angle{A} .

We know that there is a property of triangles that the measure of exterior angle is equal to the the sum of the measure of the opposite interior angles.

Therefore, x=y+z

Thus, B. is the right answer.
