Answer:
x = 34° and y = 62°
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles sum to 90°, therefore 90 = 56 + x which means that x = 34°. The angles formed by an angle bisector are congruent and so are vertical angles; this means that ∠SOR = ∠POU = 56° and ∠POQ = ∠QOR = y. Since POS is a straight line, straight lines have a measure of 180° and because ∠POS = ∠POQ + ∠QOR + ∠SOR, we know that 180 = y + y + 56 → 180 = 2y + 56 → 180 → 2y = 124 → y = 62°.
