Draw a line a parallel to AB passing through X. Apply property that alternate interior angles are equal.
therefore, angle YXZ = 40 + 35 = 75

B is correct

Draw a line parallel to the two parallel lines passing through x.
Now alternate angles are equal
So BYX=40=YXE
XZQ=35=ZXE

XYZ=YXE+ZXE=40+35=75
