Question

An isosceles triangle has base angles that each measure 42 degrees.Which equation can be used to find z, the measure of the third angle of this isosceles triangle in degrees

Answer 1

Answer:

z+42+42=180

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is an isosceles triangle, the two base angles are the same and remember all the angles add to  180. So use this equation:

z+42+42=180

If you need to find z, it is 96.

Check: 96+42+42=180
