As per the figure in the attachment

w=95 degree
z=125 degree

Inside the quardilateral

supplemantary angle of w inside the quardilateral is = 180-95=85 degree

supplemantary angle of w inside the quardilateral is =180-125=55 degree

The angles beside x and y degree inside the quardilateral is (180-x) and (180-y) degree

Since the sum of all the angles inside the quardilateral is 360 degree
we will get the equation as follows

(180-x) + (180-y) + 85 + 55= 360

therefore (x + y) = 140 degree

Whatz the OA?
