The values of x and y in the figure are solved to get

x = 22.5

y = 15

How to find the values

The values are solved with the knowledge of same side interior angles theorem

This help us to arrive at the equation

7x + 5x = 180

12x = 180

x = 180/12

x = 15

Similarly,

4y + 90 = 180

4y = 90

y = 90/4

y = 22.5
