third angle = 180 - 90 - 30 = 60 degrees

law of sines:
a/sinA = c/sinC
x/sin(30) = sqrt(2)/sin(90)
x = sqrt(2) * sin(30)/sin(90)
x = sqrt(2) * 0.5/1
x = sqrt(2)/2

law of sines:
y/sin(60) = sqrt(2)/sin(90)
y = sqrt(2) * sin(60)/sin(90)
y = sqrt(2) * (sqrt(3)/2) / 1
y = sqrt(2) * sqrt(3) / 2
y = sqrt(6)/2
