Answer:-
x= 33
y= 119

Detailed explanation:-

(3x-38) degree angle is congruent to (61) degree angle by the alternate exterior angle rule.

Congruent angles are equal hence we can find x.

So,

3x-38 = 61
3x = 61+38
3x = 99
x = 99/3
x = 33

Angles y and 61 are supplementary angles, which means they add to 180 degrees.

So,

y+61 = 180
y = 180-61
y = 119

Hope this helps.

Answers:

x = 33

y = 119

Explanation:

The (3x-38) degree angle and 61 degree angle are congruent. Refer to the alternate exterior angle theorem for more information.

Set those congruent angles equal to each other so we can find x.

3x-38 = 61

3x = 61+38

3x = 99

x = 99/3

x = 33

Angles y and 61 are supplementary because they are same side exterior angles. They add to 180 degrees.

y+61 = 180

y = 180-61

y = 119
