Percent formula : is / of = % / 100

16 is what percent of 72...

is = 16
of = 72
% = x

sub into the formula
16/72 = x / 100
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(72)(x) = (100)(16)
72x = 1600
x = 1600/72
x = 22.2 % <===

An isosceles triangle has an angle that measures 98°. Which other angles could be in that isosceles triangle? Choose all that ap
Tamiku [17]

an isosceles triangle is a triangle with two twin sides, and therefore two twin angles.

if one angle is 98°, well, we can't have another 98° angle because that makes 98+98 = 196°, and the sum of all interior angles in a triangle cannot be more than 180°.

so the other remaining angles must be the twin smaller angles, namely 180 - 98 = 82, and each twin takes half of that, namely 41°.


Check the picture below.
