    Let the measure of the second angle be x.

    The first angle has measure 3x - 34.

    The sum of the measures is 180.

    x + 3x - 34 = 180

    4x - 34 = 180

    4x = 214

    x = 53.5

    The second angle has measure 53.5 deg.

    3x - 34 = 3 * 53.5 - 34 = 160.5 - 34 = 126.5

    The measure of the first angle is 126.5 deg.

    Answer: The measures are 126.5 deg and 53.5 deg.
