Answer:
x = 20 degrees ; y = 70 degrees
Explanation:
angle supplementary to 40 = 180 - 40 = 140 degrees
in isosceles triangle has the angles of the base with the same measure
140 + (2x) = 180
2x = 180 - 140
2x = 40
2/2 x = 40/2
x = 20 degrees
90 - 20 = 70 degrees
70 + y + 40 = 180
110 + y = 180
y = 180 - 110
y = 70 degrees
