Answer: Angle C- 12
Angle B- 168
Step-by-Step explanation:

Angle B + Angle C =180
We know that Angle B is 14times greater than Angle C. So that means Angle B is equal to Angle C * 14
Angle B= Angle C* 14
Angle C is equal to 180/Angle B
Angle C is equal to 180/Angle C* 14
Angle C is equal to 180/15
Angle C= 12 degrees
We can now use this information to find Angle B. Since we know Angle B + Angle C is equal to 180. That means 180-12= Angle B
Do Angle B is 180-12=168
