Answer:

∠B= 102°, ∠Y= 32°

Explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.

∠A +∠B +∠C= 180° (∠ sum of triangle)

50° +∠B +28°= 180°

∠B +78°= 180°

∠B= 180° -78°

∠B= 102°

∠X= 180° -100° (adj. ∠s on a str. line)

∠X= 80°

∠X +∠Z +∠Y= 180° (∠ sum of traingle)

80° +68° +∠Y= 180°

∠Y +148°= 180°

∠Y= 180° -148°

∠Y= 32°

Alternatively,

∠Z +∠Y= ∠W (ext. ∠ of triangle)

68° +∠Y= 100°

∠Y= 100° -68°

∠Y= 32°
