Answer:

26 degrees.

Explanation:

The angles of triangles will always add up to 180 degrees.

The first angle is 50 degrees.

The second angle, is shown with a 76 degree angle next to it.

Since this is a 180 degree line, we can find the angle of the bottom right corner by doing 180 - 76. 180 - 76 is 104.

104 + 50 = 154 degrees.

The remaining 26 degrees is the answer to the value of y.
