Answer:
x = 36, y = 84
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°
Subtract the sum of the 2 given angles from 180 for x
x = 180 - (96 + 48) = 180 - 144 = 36
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.
y is an exterior angle of the triangle, thus
y = 48 + 36 = 84
