Answer:

Explanation:

The sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.

If we consider the measure of one of the unknown angles to be
x°, we can set up the following equation:


x + x + 75^\circ + 117^\circ = 360^\circ

Now we can solve for
x:


2x + 192^\circ = 360^\circ


2x = 360^\circ - 192^\circ [subtracting 192° from both sides]


2x = 168^\circ


x = (168^\circ)/(2) [dividing both sides by 2]


x = \bf84^\circ

Therefore, the other two angles each have a measure of 84°.
