Answer:

x = 20

y = 70

Explanation:

The exterior angle marked 40° is the sum of the remote interior angles in the isosceles triangle at lower right, both of which are x°.

40° = 2x°

x = 20 . . . . . divide by 2°

The angle marked y° is the complement of the one marked x°.

y = 90 -x = 90 -20

y = 70
