To find the measure of the smallest angle, we need to find the smallest value among the expressions (x+10)° , (x+20)° , and (x+30)°.

Since x is not given, we cannot determine the exact value of the expressions. However, we can determine which expression would yield the smallest value by considering the coefficients of x.

The coefficient of x in the expression (x+10)° is 1.
The coefficient of x in the expression (x+20)° is 1.
The coefficient of x in the expression (x+30)° is 1.

Since all the coefficients are the same, we can compare the constants or the numbers being added to x in each expression to determine which value is the smallest: 10, 20, or 30.

The smallest value among 10, 20, and 30 is 10. Therefore, the measure of the smallest angle is (x+10)°.

Answer: 40°
