Answer:

x = 96

y = 66

Explanation:

The sum of interior angles of the given shape is 360:

x + y + 123 + 75 = 360

x + y + 198 = 360 subtract 198 from both sides

x + y = 162

The angle with the measure 114 and angle y are supplementary so their sum is 180

y + 114 = 180

y = 66 since x + y = 162 we can use this to find the value of x

x = 162 - 66

x = 96
