Answer:

x = 115° , y = 140° , z = 40°

Explanation:

40° , x and 25° lie on a straight line and sum to 180° , that is

x + 40° + 25° = 180°

x + 65° = 180° ( subtract 65° from both sides )

x = 115°

z and 40° are vertically opposite angles and are congruent , then

z = 40°

y and z lie on a straight line and sum to 180° , that is

y + 40° = 180° ( subtract 40° from both sides )

y = 140°
