Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

the sum of the 3 angles in Δ ABC = 180°

sum the 3 angles, equate to 180 and solve for x

3x + 3x - 3 + 2x - 1 = 180 ( collect like terms on left side )

8x - 4 = 180 ( add 4 to both sides )

8x = 184 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 23

Then

∠ B = 3x - 3 = 3(23) - 3 = 69 - 3 = 66°

-----------------------------------------------------------

∠ 5 is congruent to ∠ 4 ( vertically opposite angles )

∠ 2 is congruent to ∠ 4 ( alternate angles )
