Answer:

26°

Step-by-step explanation:

An obtuse triangle is a triangle that has one obtuse angle. Obtuse angle is an angle that is greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two equal sides and angles.  

Therefore, an obtuse isosceles triangle is a triangle with an obtuse angle and two equal sides that have two equal acute angles (angle less than 90° ).

Given:

The three angles of the triangle are given to be x°, x°  and (10x−2) = 128°. The obtuse angle is 128°, the two x° are acute angles. We are not using equation 10x − 2 since the value of the obtuse angle has been given as 128°

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°

∴  x° + x° + 128° = 180°

2x° = 180° - 128°

2x° = 52°

x° = 52° / 2

x° = 26°

The measurement of one of the acute angles is 26°

NeX [460]
Let's assign variables for the unknowns. Let x be the amount of total sales while x is the amount of net sales. It is called net sales because a percentage is still deducted from it. The equation will be written as:

Net Sale = Total Sales - 0.25*Total Sales
y = x - 0.25x
y = 0.75x
