Answer:

The larger angle is 54°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let the angles be: θ and α where

θ > α

Sum = 72

α : θ = 1 : 3

Required

Determine the larger angle

First, we get the proportion of the larger angle (from the ratio)

The sum of the ratio is 1 + 3 = 4

So, the proportion of the larger angle is ¾.

Its value is then calculated as:.

θ = Proportion * Sum

θ = ¾ * 72°

θ = 3 * 18°

θ = 54°

Komok [63]

Answer:

+5 Range; The range is now 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The original range would be calculated by subtracting 20 from 40, giving you 20 as the range. However, with the point 15 added, there would be a new lowest number, making the new range be 40-15, which is 25.
