Solution

Two angles are $68^{o} a n d 76^{o}$

Let other two angles be 5x and 7x

$∴ 68^{o} + 76^{o} + 5 x + 7 x = 360^{o} 12 x + 144^{o} = 360^{o} 12 x = 360^{o} - 144^{o} 12 x = 216^{o} x = 18^{o}$

$∴$ angle are 5x and 7x

i.e. $5 \times 18^{o} a n d 7 \times 18^{o} i . e . 90^{o} a n d 126^{o}$
