Answer:

Explanation:

So we know that a straight line adds up to 180 degrees.

This means that:

52+59+y = 180

y + 111 = 180

y = 69

We also know a triangle also adds up to 180 degrees.

This means that:

y+x+63 = 180

69+63+x = 180

x + 132 = 180

x = 48

180-(59+52)=69
Y=69
All angles in a triangle add to 180°
So 63+69=132
180-132=48
X=48°
