In the diagram, we are dealing with two angles, \( x \) and \( y \), where the sum of the angles forms two sets of relationships:

1. \( x \) and the given \( 41^\circ \) angle form a linear pair, meaning they are supplementary (add up to \( 180^\circ \)).
2. \( y \) and \( 41^\circ \) form a right angle (as indicated by the small square marking), meaning they add up to \( 90^\circ \).

### Step-by-step solution:

1. **For \( x \)**:  
   Since \( x \) and \( 41^\circ \) are on a straight line, they are supplementary:
   \[
   x + 41^\circ = 180^\circ
   \]
   Solving for \( x \):
   \[
   x = 180^\circ - 41^\circ = 139^\circ
   \]

2. **For \( y \)**:  
   The angle \( y \) and \( 41^\circ \) are complementary, as they form a right angle:
   \[
   y + 41^\circ = 90^\circ
   \]
   Solving for \( y \):
   \[
   y = 90^\circ - 41^\circ = 49^\circ
   \]

### Final answers:
- \( x = 139^\circ \)
- \( y = 49^\circ \)
