Write the measure 29° 6' 6" as decimal to the nearest thousandth.

den301095 [7]

This angle is "29 degrees 6 minutes 6 seconds".

-- There are 60 minutes in 1 degree.
   So 1 minute = 1/60 degree.

-- There are 60 seconds in 1 minute.
      So 1 second = 1/60 minute = 1/3600 degree.

29 6' 6" = (29)° + (6/60)° + (6/3600)°

   = (29)° + (0.1)° + (0.001666...)°

   = 29.101666...°

Rounded to the nearest thousandth of a degree: 29.102°

What’s the measure of this angle

pashok25 [27]

First, write the expression.
180=(x+96)+5x
Second, add all coefficients.
180=6x+96
Subtract 96 from each side.
180-96=6x+96-96
84=6x
Divide both sides by 6.
14=x
Now that you have found the value of x, substitute x to solve the angles.
The first angle:
x+96
14+96=110 degrees
The second angle:
5*x
5*14=70 degrees

One angle in an obtuse isosceles triangle measures 40°. What are the measures of the other two angles?

Damm [24]

An obtuse triangle has one obtuse angle, or an angle that measures more than 90° but less than 180°. Options 1 and 2 are not correct, because these are acute angles.
So, one of the angles must be 40°, and the other may be 100° or 120°.
The measures of the angles in a triangle add up to 180°.
$40^\circ + 40^\circ +x = 180^\circ \\
80^\circ + x=180^\circ \\
x=180^\circ - 80^\circ \\
x=100^\circ$
The other two angles are 40° and 100°.
