The value of the variable x obtained from the diagram is x = 13, and y = 11

The steps used to find the value of the variable is presented as follows;

The parallel sides in the figure indicates that we get;

Alternate interior angles are congruent

4·x = 52°

x = 52/4

x = 13

The interior angles in the right triangle indicates that we get;

(3·y + 5)° + 4·x° + 90° = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)

4·x + 3·y + 95 = 180

Plugging in the value of x obtained from above alternate interior angles indicates that we get;

4 × 13 + 3·y + 95 = 180

52 + 3·y + 95 = 180

3·y + 147 = 180

3·y = 180 - 147

y = (180 - 147)/3

y = 11
