Answer:m<1 = 111 degrees, m<2 = 69 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:The measure of angles 1 and 2 are supplementary, (two angles adding up to 180 degrees). Using this, set up the equation:

x + 88 + 3x = 180

4x = 108

x=23 degrees

Next, substitute 23 into the given angles:

m<1 = (23 + 88) = 111 degrees

m<2 = 23 * 3 = 69 degrees

Thus, m<1 = 111 degrees, m<2 = 69 degrees.
