1 answer:
The angle of the water slide is 60 degrees.
The equation that models his work is 3 × 20 = 60 degrees.
<h3>How to find the sum of angles of a figure/object?</h3>
He wants to measure the angle of a water slide at the lake.
He used a sheet of folded paper that formed 20 degrees to measure the angle of the the water slide at the lake.
He noticed three folded paper angle fits in the angle made by the slide and the ground.
Since each angle is equals to 20 degrees, and the three fits into the angle made by the slide and the ground, the angle of the water slide is as follows:
20 × 3 = 60 degrees

Answer:
20 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
First, draw the triangle and label the sides and angles. (See the picture attached)
The red lines on sides FG and HF indicate that the sides are congruent since this is an isosceles triangle. Isosceles triangles have two congruent sides and angles.
All angles add up to 180 degrees. You were already given 140 for angle F. So, use to find angle h, subtract 140 from 180 and divide by 2.
180 - 140 = 40
40 / 2 = 20
Angle h is 20 degrees
