ΔABC is an isosceles triangle in which angles B and C are congruent. If m∠B = (2x + 16)° and m∠C = (3x - 11)°, find the measure of angle A.
A) 27°
B) 40°
C) 60°
D) 70°
2 answers:
2x + 16 = 3x - 11 because <span>angles B and C are congruent
3x -2x = 16 + 11
x = 27
m<B = </span>2x + 16
m<B = 2(27) + 16
m<B = 56+16
m<B = 70
because B and C are congruent
m<B = m<C = 70
so
m<A = 180 - ( 70+70)
m<A = 180 - 140
m<A = 180 = 40
answer is <span>B) 40°</span>
40 is the answer. You have to find x by making the two equations equal the same then solve for x. Then plug in x to both equations to get the sum, add them together, then subtract it from 180 to get the sum of the last angle

2. He can do 5 times 3 to get to the 15th shape and then say 2 more to get the 17th shape.
(The 17th shape would be triangle)
D.) 15s
