You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The three angles of every triangle must total 180°, so make
an equation from the fact:

A° + B° + C° = 180°

[m-10]° + [m+10]° + m° = 180°

Solve that for m, which will be the value of C in degrees.

(You can drop the degree ° marks, of course)

Then substitute the value of m in 

A=[m-10]°, angle B=[m+10]°

to find the other two angles in degrees
