if the measure of the two opposite angles of a parallogram are: 3x + 40 and x + 50, what is the value of x and the measure of its angle

Sum of angles is:

2*(3x+40+x+50)=2*(4x+90)=8x+180

If you measuring angles in А

8x+180А=360А

8x=360АА-180А=180А

8x=180А Divide with 8

x=180А/8

x=22.5А

First angle=3x+40=3*22.5+40=67.5+40=
107.5А=107А30Д

Second angle=x+50=22.5+50=72.5А=72А30Д

In a certain triangle, one angle has a measure of 53А and another angle has a measure of 74А. If the triangle is isosceles, then which of the following could be the measure of the third angle?
