Answer:
y+3y+108=180
4y=180-108
y=18
sorry maybe its easy but I couldn't find the value of x
::: ( I think ADC is an isosceles triangle)

Answer :-
x = 54° and y = 18°.
Solution :-
∠CAE + ∠BAC + ∠BAD = 180° (Linear Pair)
108 + 3y + y = 180
108 + 4y = 180
4y = 180 - 108
4y = 72
y = 72/4
y = 18
We know that
Exterior angle = Sum of two interior angles of a triangle
∠CAE = ∠ACD + ∠ADC
108° = x + ∠ADC
108 - x = ∠ADC --(1)
108 - ∠ADC = x --(2)
Subtracting (1) and (2)
108 - x - (108 - ∠ADC) = ∠ADC - x
108 - x - 108 + ∠ADC = ∠ADC - x
- x + ∠ADC = ∠ADC - x
- x + ∠ADC = - x + ∠ADC
- x + x = ∠ADC - ∠ADC
0 = 0
This means ∠ADC = x
In ΔADC
∠ADC + ∠DAC+ ∠ACD = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
∠ADC + 3y + y + x= 180
∠ADC + 4y + x = 180
∠ADC + 4(18) + x = 180
∠ADC + 72 + x = 180
x + 72 + x = 180 (Since ∠ADC = x)
2x = 180 - 72
2x = 108
x = 108/2
x = 54°
Therefore x = 54° and y = 18°.
