Answer:

X=5

Explanation:

(10x - 5)+(12x+30)+(7x+10)= 180 ... (sum of angles in a triangle)

=29x+35=180 ... (adding and subtracting only the like terms)

29x=180-35

29x = 145

(divide both sides by the coefficient of x "29")

Therefore x = 5

Then substitute the value of x (which is 5) into the expression of angles given.

Measurement of angle A:

10x-5

=10(5)-5

=50-5

=45°

Measurement of angle B:

12x+30

=12(5)+30

=60+30

90°

Measurement of angle C:

7x+10

=7(5)+10

=35+10

=45°
