In a triangle, the measures of the three angles are x, x-23, and x+59. What is the measures of each angle?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In a triangle, the sum of its interior angles is 180 degrees.

It gives you an equation

x + (x-23) + (x+59) = 180.

Simplify and solve this equation for x.

Then find the angles of the triangle.


Good Luck!
