Geometry

• All angles in a triangle add up to 180°

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify and set up

x° + 90° + 57° = 180°

Step 2: Solve for x

1. [Addition] Combine like terms:                                                                        x° + 147° = 180°
2. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 147 on both sides:                     x° = 33°

Answer 2

Answer:

Angle = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles should add up to 180 and the angles shown are 90 and 57 and then add those to get 147 then subtract 147 by 180 to get 33 for the angle. Hope this helps!
