Answer:

The measure of the exterior angle is 92 degrees

Explanation:

Problem 16)

we know that

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles

so

In this problem


(2x-2)\°=x\°+45\°

solve for x


2x-x=45+2


x=47\°

Find the measure of the exterior angle


(2x-2)\°=(2(47)-2)=92\°
