Answer:

x°=113°

y°=67°

z°=49°

Explanation:

Looking at the right triangle exclusively, we know that it must have 180° in total.

Set up an equation that represents this:

28°+39°+x°=180°

Simplify:

67°+x°=180°

Solve:

x°=113°

Now, we also know that x°+y°=180°, because they form a line. Now that we know the value of x°, plug it in to this equation:

113°+y°=180

Solve:

y°=67°

Finally, apply the same logic with the first triangle with the other triangle:

64°+67°+z°=180°

Simplify:

131°+z°=180°

Solve:

z°=49°
