Answer:

x = 2, y = 6

Explanation:

Δ WXY is equilateral ( 3 congruent angles ), then the sides are equal

WY = WX , that is

y - 1 = 5 ( add 1 to both sides )

y = 6

Δ WYZ is isosceles ( 2 congruent base angles ) then the legs are congruent

YZ = WY , that is

x + 3 = 5 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

x = 2
