Answer:

m<A = 120°

m<C = 45°

Explanation:

We can use the triangle sum theorem to find the measures of the angles.

m<A + m<B + m<C = 180°

Then substitute in their given values.

12x + 12 + 15 + 3x + 18 = 180°

Now simplify the equation and you get

15x + 45 = 180°

Continue to solve

15x = 135

x = 9°

Now substitute this value of 9 for the angle expressions of <A and <C

(12 x 9) +12 = m<A

m<A = 120°

(3 x 9)+ 18 = m<C

m<C = 45°

Hope this helps. To check your answer you can add up all the answers to see if it equals 180°.
