Answer:

x = 84, y = 96, z = 62

Explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180° , then

x = 180 - (60 + 36) = 180 - 96 = 84

x and y lie on a straight line and sum to 180° , then

y = 180 - x = 180 - 84 = 96

z = 180 - (96 + 22) ← angle sum of triangle

z = 180 - 118 = 62

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

x = 180 - (36+60)

= 180 - 96

= 84 degrees.

y = 180 - 84 = 96 degrees.

z = 180 - (96 + 22)

= 180 - 118

= 62 degrees,
