Answer:
70
Step-by-step explanation:
the red lines mean the two sides are equal
so its an isosceles triangle meaning the two angles other than the 40° one are equal
the inner angles of a triangle must add up to 180
so 180-40 = 2x
140 = 2x
x = 140/2 = 70
So basically, each number is equal to the two numbers below it added together.
See, 7 = 3+4, 8 = 5 +3, etc.
So, the top would be 16 + 17.
16 + 17 = 33
So 33 goes on top.
the equation here would be set up by doing
44.4 - 10.9 = 33.5
Carlsbad caverns is 33.5 kilometers long.
