Answer:

x = 61°

y = 29°

Explanation:

Since x°+29° is a right angle (90°), you would have to subtract 29 from 90 to get x.

90 - 29 = x

90 - 29 = 61

x = 61°

For y: You can infer that y°+x°=90° as well because the angles are corresponding angles. So to find y°, you would do the same thing as finding x.

90 - x = y

90 - 61 = 29

y = 29°

Hope this helps :)
