Detailed Solution

Given figure is:
Question Image Here, 55° and x are equal as they are vertically opposite angles.
This means that the value of x is 55°.
Now, since, y and 55° lie on the same line, so they are forming a linear pair which means that their sum is 180°.
y+55°=180°
y=180°-55°
y=125°
Now, since y and z are vertically opposite angles, they are equal.
y=z
Therefore, the required angles are x = 55°, y = 125° and z = 125°.
Hence, option 2 is correct.
