Solution

The correct option is C 125°

Given, XY||ST,
By taking XZ as transversal, We can say
∠TSZ=∠SXY --- (Corresponding angles)
∠SXY = 50° --- (∵ ∠TSZ = 50° )
Now,
UV||XZ
By taking YZ as transversal, We can say
∠UVT=∠XZY --- (Corresponding angles)
∠XZY = 75° --- (∵ ∠UVT = 75° )
Now, We have to find ∠XZY + ∠SXY
∠XZY + ∠SXY = 50° + 75° = 125°
