@nikato okay

jusaquikie · Answer

all angles in a triangle add up to 180, this has 3 triangles so use that to find a triangle that has 2 angles listed then add them up and take 180 -(the sum of the two angles) now you have another piece to the puzzle. keep going till you have all 3.

jusaquikie · Answer

so to start.... 17+100+z=180

anonymous · Answer

how did you get 17? @Jusaquikie

anonymous · Answer

He got the 17 from the angle in the triangle

jusaquikie · Answer

it's on the picture you posted
solve for z, then z+62+(y+17)=180

anonymous · Answer

okay @Jusaquikie

jusaquikie · Answer

then finaly 62+y+x=180 solve for x
