Answer:

x = 7 and the degree of other two angles is 69.

Explanation:

As we can see it is an isosceles triangle so base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal so

9x + 6 + 9x + 6 + 42 = 180 (being sum of angles of triangle )

18x + 54 = 180

18x = 180 - 54

18x = 126

x = 126/18

x = 7

the degree of the other two angle is

= 9*7 + 6

= 69

Hope it helps :)
