Answer:

x = 121 degrees

y = 59 degrees

w = 59 degrees

z = 53 degrees

v = 121 degrees

Explanation:

31 + 90 + w = 180 ==> these three angles are in the top left triangle.

Triangles add up to 180 degrees

121 + w = 180 ==> solve for w

w = 59 degrees

y = w ==> these angles are opposite adjacent angles; they are congruent

y = 59 degrees ==> Both angles are equal. So both angles are 59 degrees

68 + y + z = 180 ==> triangles add up to 180 degrees

68 + 59 + z = 180 ==> plugin 59 for y

127 + z = 180 ==> solve for z

z = 53 degrees ==> subtract 137 on both sides

w + x = 180 ==> w and x are on a straight line.

Straight lines add up to 180 degrees.

59 + x = 180 ==> plugin 59 for w

x = 121 degrees ==> subtract 59 on both sides

v + y = 180 ==> v and y are also on a straight line.

v + 59 = 180 ==> plugin 59 for y

v = 121 degrees ==> subtract 59 on both sides

x = 121 degrees

y = 59 degrees

w = 59 degrees

z = 53 degrees

v = 121 degrees
