In this problem

we have an isosceles triangle

because

BU=UG ------> given

that means

m by definition of isosceles triangle

so

Remember that

In any triangle, the sum of the interior angles must be equal to 180 degrees

therefore

substitute given values

3x+2(x+10)=180

solve for x

3x+2x+20=180

5x=180-20

5x=160

x=32

therefore
