Answer:
Measure of the smallest angle = 35 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
As it is a right triangle the values of the 2 smaller angles will add up to 90 degrees.
So the 2 angles can be written as x and 90-x and we have:
(90 - x) - x = 20
-2x = 20 - 90 = -70
x = 35.
So the 2 angles are 35 and 55 degrees.

Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
The two base angles are congruent, so we have ...
x +17 = 4x -34
51 = 3x . . . . . . . add 34-x
17 = x . . . . . . . . .divide by 3
Answer:
you are on the right track
Step-by-step explanation:
the second ones right so you are right :)
2x+38=180
2x=142 (or x+x=142 from which 2x=142)
x=71
The unknown angles are each 71
You know this answer is logical as, since two sides are 21 it hints that we are looking at an equilateral triangle, which means two of its angles will be the same
