Answer:

y = 50

Explanation:

This requires the alternate interior angle theorem, which states that:

The alternate interior angle theorem states that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then alternate interior angles are congruent.

Since 50 degrees is an alternate interior angle to y, y must be equal to 50 degrees.

So,

y = 50
