Answer 2

Answer:

70°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠A =112°,

Exterior angle to angle B is 2x, therefore ∠B = 180 -2x (angle on straight line)

Exterior angle to angle C is 2x + 12, therefore ∠C = 180 -(2x +12) (angle on straight line) = 180 - 12 -2x = 168 - 2x

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180 (sum o angles in a triangle)

112 + 180 - 2x + 168 - 2x = 180

460 - 4x = 180

4x = 460 - 180 = 280

x = 280/4 = 70

x = 70°
