Question

Find the measure of the given angles. Show work!!

Answer 1

Answer:

m∠A = 45⁰

m∠B = 75⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question 4;

m∠A = x + 51

m∠B = 81 + x

m∠C = 60⁰

The value of the missing angles can be determined by the finding the value of x first;

m∠A  +  m∠B  + m∠C = 180⁰ (sum of angles in a triangle)

(x + 51)  +  (81 + x)  +  60⁰ = 180

(x + x) + (51 + 81 + 60) = 180

2x + 192 = 180

2x = 180 - 192

2x = -12

x = -12/2

x = -6

Thus, the values of the angles are calculated as follows;

m∠A = x + 51

         = -6 + 51  

          = 45⁰

m∠B = 81 + x

        = 81 - 6

         = 75⁰
