Answer: Hi!

Let's start, you have 3 boxes and 3 types off eggs inside of each. The fact that they each box is labelled incorrectly means that inside the box labelled Large, only can be the set of small or mixed eggs.

So, let's suppose we open this Box labelled LARGE and inside of it we find the small eggs.

now we have two remaining boxes, the labeled SMALL and the labelled MIXED.

the MIXED can only contain the set of large eggs or the set of small, because you know that is wrong labelled, and also you know that the small eggs are in the first box that you oppened, so here are the large eggs, and now in the last box is the last set of eggs, the mixed one.

So you only will need to open one box to know which eggs are in what box.

Find the value of Angle A and B!!! Will mark brainliest
rewona [7]

Answer:

A=73

B=107

Step-by-step explanation:

since the angles are across from eachother they would be the same, the total angle of all 4 added together would be 360, and 73+107 would be 180, so 180+180 is equal to 360
