Answer:

y=30, x=8

Explanation:

right angle =90

the angle of a triangle =90-40=50 degrees

the image shows two parallel line with perpendicular line that holding angle 40 and 3y

3y=90 degrees

y=90/3=30 degrees

the sum of the angles of triangle =180

3y+5x+50=180

3(30)+5x+50=180

5x=180-90-50

5x=40

x=40/5=8

the angles are 50,90,40
