Answer:

x = 145° , y = 135°

Explanation:

the sum of the 3 angles in a triangle is 180° , then

x + 25° + 10° = 180°

x + 35° = 180° ( subtract 35° from both sides )

x = 145°

the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

x is an exterior angle of the triangle containing y , then

y + 10° = x , that is

y + 10° = 145° ( subtract 10° from both sides )

y = 135°
