Answer:

<ABC = 51°

Explanation:

Given

<A = 2x -15°

<B = x - 5°

< C = 148°

Now

<A + <B = < C ( Exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles)

2x -15° + x - 5° = 148°

3x - 20° = 148°

3x = 148° +20°

3x = 168°

x = 168° / 3

X = 56°

Now for Angle B

= 56° - 5°

= 51°

Hope it helps :)
