By calculating, I write the values of X and Y in the following rectangle PQRS:

Given PQRS is a rectangle
Each angle of a rectangle is 90°
Let O be the intersecting point of PR and QS
(i) ∠SQR = 25°(given)
⇒∠PQS = 90° - 25° = 65°
And ∠PSQ = 25° = ∠SQR and ∠QSR = ∠PQS = 65°(PS ∥ QR and QS is transversal) and
Since the diagonals of rectangle are equal and bisects each other
In ΔQOR
OQ = OR
⇒ ∠OQR = ∠QRO = 25° (angles opposite to equal sides are equal)
⇒ ∠QOR = 40° (angle sum property of a triangle)
∠SRQ = 90° (Each angle of a rectangle is 90°)
And ∠QRP = 25° so ∠PRS = ∠x = 90° - 25° = 65°
In Δ PSO
∠PSQ = 25° and ∠SPR = 25°
⇒∠POS = ∠y = 90° - 50° = 40° (angle sum property of a triangle)
(ii) In rectangle PQRS
∠QOR = ∠POS = 100° (vertically opposite angles)
In ΔPOS
PO = OS (diagonals of a rectangle are equal and bisects each other)
⇒ ∠OPS = ∠OSP = ∠y
⇒ ∠y = 180° - 100° = ![]()
⇒ ∠x = 50°( each angle of rectangle is 90°)
