Answer:

x = 58°, y = 32°

Explanation:

all sides are equal, hence it is a rhombus.

in a rhombus, diagonals meet at 90degree..

hence in triangle,

58 + 90 + z = 180 (asp of a triangle.)

z = 32

y = z ( alternate interior angles as lines are parallel in rhombus)

y = 32

in the bigger triangle,

angles opposite to equal sides are equal, hence,

32 + 32 + (58 + x) = 180 ( angle sum property of a triangle,)

hence, x = 58

therefore,

x = 58°, y = 32°
