Answer:

x= 67 degrees and z= 54 degrees

Explanation:

Using alternative interior angle, you can see that x is equal to 67 degrees

-In a triangle, there is 180 degrees. Since there are 59 degrees and 67 degrees in the triangle, you will just need to solve for z.

-In order to solve for z, you subtract 180-59-67= 54

Hope this helps!
