Answers: ∠a = 30° ; ∠b = 60° ; ∠c = 105<span>°.
</span>_____________________________________________
1) The measure of Angle a is 30°. (m∠a = 30°).
Proof:  All vertical angles are congruent, and we are shown in the diagram that angle A — AND the angle labeled with the measurement of 30°— are vertical angles. 

2) The measure of Angle b is 60°. (m∠b = 60<span>°).
Proof:  All three angles of a triangle add up to 90 degrees. In the diagram, we can examine the triangle formed by Angle A, Angle B, and a 90</span>° angle. This is a right triangle, and the angle with 90∠ degrees is indicated as such (with the "square" symbol).  So we know that one angle is 90°.  We also know that m∠a = 30°.  If there are three angles in a triangle, and all three angles must add up to 180°, and we know the measurements of two of the three angles, we can solve for the unknown measurement of the remaining angle, which in this case is: m∠b.  
 90° + 30° + m∠b = 180<span>° ;
</span>180° - (<span>90° + 30°) = m∠b ; 
</span>180° - (120°) = m∠b = 60<span>°
</span>___________________________
Now we need to solve for the measure of Angle c (<span>m∠c).
___________________________________________
All angles on a straight line (or straight "line segment") are called "supplementary angles" and  must add up to 180</span>°.  As shown, Angle c is on a "straight line".  The measurement of the remaining angle represented ("supplementary angle" to Angle c is 75° (shown on diagram).  As such, the measure of "Angle C" (m∠c) = m∠c = 180° - 75° = 105°.

A=30,

Cause it is a vertical angle with the angle labeld 30,

to find B, we have the expression:

180-(30+90)

Cause we know 2 of the angles in that triangle and that the sum of all the angles is 180.

180-(30+90)=

180 - 120=

60

B = 60

then For C, it is on the vertical line, or a supplementary angle so it is 180 - 75 = c

C=105

Jimmy's cedar trunk is in the shape of a rectangular prism and has a volume of 3/4 cubic yard. How many cubic blocks with a side
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: 6 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume of the rectangular prism is V=\dfrac{3}{4}\ yd^3

Length of the cubic block is a=\dfrac{1}{2}\ yd

Volume of each cubic block is

\Rightarrow V_o=\left (\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^3\\\\\Rightarrow V_o=\dfrac{1}{8}\ yd^3

Suppose, n blocks are required to measure the volume of Prism

\Rightarrow V=nV_o\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{4}=n\cdot \dfrac{1}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{3\times 8}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow n=6\ \text{blocks}

Thus, 6 blocks are required to measure the volume of prism.
