Explanation:

One interior angle of a triangle = 30⁰ .

The measure of other two are x and y .

We know that the angle sum property of a triangle is 180⁰ .

=> x + y + 30⁰ = 180⁰

=> x + y = 180⁰ - 30⁰.

=> x + y = 150.

Possible solution set of x and y are ,

(1,149) (2,148 ) ...... (148+2) & (149+1)

Basically we are here decreasing y and increasing x to obtain the values .

Hope it helped !
