Question

Find the measure of angle b if angle a is 22 degrees and the whole angle is 300 degrees

Answer 1

Answer:

$a = 278^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$b = 22^{\circ}$

$Whole\ Angle = 300^{\circ}$

Required

Find the measure of a

Since there is no diagram to support the question, we'll assume that:

$a + b = Whole\ Angle$

This gives:

$a + 22^{\circ} = 300^{\circ}$

Subtract 22 from both sides

$a + 22^{\circ}-22^{\circ} = 300^{\circ}-22^{\circ}$

$a = 300^{\circ}-22^{\circ}$

$a = 278^{\circ}$
