Answer:

60 or 180 degrees

Explanation:

In this case, we can see that the angle marked as 60 degrees is a vertical angle to the angle marked as X degrees 1. Therefore, X = 60 degrees.

Also, we can see that the angles marked as X and Y together form a pair of alternate interior angles 1. Therefore, X + Y = 180 degrees.
