Asap please help! and explain how you got the answer!

55

To start to solve this problem we start by observing what information there is. We need y, to find y we have to know x. We need x to find y because all the angles in a triangle add up to 180. If we find x we can subtract the angles we know and get y. To find x we look and see that it is on a straight line, and on the other side of the line is 100. We know that a straight line is 180 degrees so we subtract 100 from 180 to get x. We now know x is 80, so now we minus 89 and 45 from 180. We get 55. This means that y is 55.

Hope this helps! Please make me the brainliest, it’s not necessary but appreciated, I put a lot of effort and research into my answers. Have a good day, stay safe and stay healthy.
