The value of x is 27. Option 1 is the right choice.

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Angle A is 10 degrees.

Angle B is 2x-5 degrees.

Angle C is x+8 degrees.

Therefore, we have the following equation:

10 + 2x-5 + x+8 = 180

Combining like terms, we have:

3x+13 = 180

Subtracting 13 from both sides, we have:

3x = 167

Dividing both sides by 3, we have:

x = 27

Therefore, the value of x is 27.

Option 1 is the right choice.
