Answer:

54, 51, 75

Explanation:

4x+7=5x-10 because they are vertical angles and are therefore equal to eachother. x=17.

After plugging the 17 into the equations you get 4(17)+7=75. 3(17)=51. All angles in a triangle add up to 180. We already have 75 and 51 in the first triangle, to get the third length you need to subtract that from 180. 180-75+51=54.

The second triangle will give you the same lengths. 5x-10=75. 4(17)-14=54. Again, 180-75-54=51.

Your final lengths are 75,51,54.

If the triangles are similar, then the angles are all congruent.

Therefore, we can start by setting the two middle angles equal to each other.

4x + 7 = 5x - 10

7 = x - 10

x = 17

Middle angle = 75

Now that we know our x-value, we can simply plug in x for our other two expressions.

3 * 17 = 51

4(17) - 14 = 54

We can check to make sure that our angle measures are correct by adding them all up and making sure they equal 180.

54 + 51 + 75 = 180

180 = 180

Hope this helps!! :)
