Answer:

x = 36 degrees

y = 54 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle x degrees and 54 degrees are shown to be perpendicular, therefore, their sum is 90 degrees

x + 54 = 90

Subtract 54 from both sides

x = 90 - 54

= 36

x and y are also perpendicular

x + y = 90

But x = 36

so

36 + y = 90

Subtract 36 from both sides

y = 90 - 36

= 54

Therefore, x = 36, and y = 54
