To find the measure of the exterior angle \( x \), we can use the fact that the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles.
However, since we don't have specific information about the triangle angles or their measurements in your prompt, I will assume that this is a common problem involving exterior angles.
If the other two angles of the triangle are known or one is given as \( 37^\circ \) and another as \( 42^\circ \), then:
1. First, calculate the interior angle adjacent to the exterior angle \( x \):
\[
180 - 37 - 42 = 101^\circ \quad \text{(This is the interior angle adjacent to angle x)}
\]
2. Now, we can calculate the measure of the exterior angle \( x \):
\[
x = 180 - 101 = 79^\circ
\]
So, based on the options given (37, 42, 79/24/90), the measure of the exterior angle \( x \) is **79**. If these conditions do not match, please provide additional details so I can assist you correctly.
