Answer:

x = 4

y = 65

Explanation:

The little red marks on the sides near x and 4 mean that those sides are congruent.

x = 4

In a triangle, opposite angles of congruent sides are congruent.

Angle y and the other base angle are congruent. They both measure y.

The upper angle measures 50°.

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°

y + y + 50 = 180

2y = 130

y = 65
