Figure 1:

We have that:

- The sum of the internal angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.

- A right angle measures 180°.

Therefore:


180-78-39=63

And


x=180-63=117

Answer: x = 117°

Figure 2:


180-109=71

And


x=180-27-71=82

Answer: x = 82°

Figure 3:


180-116=64

And


\begin{gathered} 7x+6+4x+64=180 \\ Solve\text{ for x} \\ 11x+70=180 \\ 11x+70-70=180-70 \\ 11x=110 \\ (11x)/(11)=(110)/(11) \\ x=10 \end{gathered}

Answer: x = 10
