Answer

Option B is correct.

Angle Y = 68º

Step-by-step explanation

Similar triangles have the same set of angles in them.

All the corresponding angles are equal to each other.

So, if triangle ABC is similar to triangle XYZ

Angle A = Angle X

Angle B = Angle Y

Angle C = Angle Z

The order in which they are named determines the angles that are corresponding to each other.

So, if Angle B = 68º

Angle Y = Angle B = 68º

Hope this Helps!!!
