Answer:

153

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure shows a right triangle with acute angle of 27°, this angle is the angle between the water level and the ski ramp.

It is also shown the suplementary angle 27° marked as X°, which is the angle that you must determine.

In the figure is clear that x is the exterior angle of the corner with the angle of 27° and that X° + 27° = 180°.

Then you can solve for X.

X = 180° - 27° = 153°.

Answer: 153°
