Answer:

x=90

y=148

Explanation:

Since we know a line is 180 degrees, and we know that angle Q is 90, x must be a 90-degree angle as well.

With our given information we can add up the two given angles in the triangle which are 90 and 58

90+58=148

To find what R is, we must subtract 148 from 180 because all the angles in a triangle sum up to 180.

180-148=32

Now that we know that R is 32, because we know that a line is 180 degrees, we can subtract 32 from 180 to get our final answer for y as 148.

180-32=148
