Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Supplementary angles are two or more angles that add up to give the measure of angle on a straight line (i.e
).
It can be deduced from the given question that;
1. <1 and <2 are supplementary, also <1 and <3 are supplementary. Reason: as given in the question.
2. Given statements: m<1 + m<2 =
, and m<1 + m<3 =
. The reason is the definition of supplementary angles.
3. Statement: m<2 = m<3. The reason is a transitive property.
4. Statement: m<1 + m<2 = m<1 + m<3. The reason is subtraction property of equality.
5.Given statement: <2 ≅ <3. The reason is that definition of congruent angles.
Therefore, <2 ≅ <3.

Answer: 81</h3>
==============================================
Work Shown:
a = first term
a*(2/3) = (2/3)a= second term
(2/3)a*(2/3) = (4/9)a = third term
note how I multiplied each previous term by the common ratio (2/3) to get the next term
Add up the three terms
a + (2/3)a + (4/9)a = (9/9)a + (6/9)a + (4/9)a = (19/9)a
Set this equal to 171, which is what we want the first three terms to sum to, then solve for 'a'
(19/9)a = 171
a = (9/19)*171
a = 81 is the first term
------------------------------------
Checking the answer:
a = 81 = first term
(2/3)*a = (2/3)*81 = 54 = second term
(4/9)*a = (4/9)*81 = 36 = third term
adding up the three terms gets us
81+54+36 = 171
so we have confirmed the answer
