Answer:

(x, y, z) = (2, 31°, 60°)

Explanation:

Opposite sides have the same length, so ...

x + 8 = 10

x = 2 . . . . . . . . subtract 8

__

Consecutive angles are supplementary, so ...

(3y +10°) +(2y +15°) = 180°

5y = 155° . . . . . . subtract 25°

y = 31° . . . . . . . .divide by 5

__

Opposite angles are congruent, so ...

z +17° = 2y +15°

z = 2y -2° = 2(31°) -2°

z = 60°
