Answer:
Part 1) [tex]x=27[/tex]
Part 2) The measure of the interior angles are 64°-67°-49°
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
step 1
Find the value of x
we know that
The sum of the interior angles in any triangle must be equal to 180 degrees
so
In this problem
[tex](3x-17)^o+(x+40)^o+(2x-5)^o=180^o[/tex]
Solve for x
Combine like terms
[tex](6x+18)^o=180^o[/tex]
Subtract 18 both sides
[tex]6x=180-18[/tex]
[tex]6x=162[/tex]
Divide by 6 both sides
[tex]x=27[/tex]
step 2
Find the measure of each interior angle
substitute the value of x in each measure
[tex](3(27)-17)=64^o[/tex]
[tex](27+40)=67^o[/tex]
[tex](2(27)-5)=49^o[/tex]
