Question

The measure of the exterior angle of the triangle is what degree?

Answer 1

Answer:

92°

Step-by-step explanation:

By exterior angle theorem:

$(2x - 2) \degree = x \degree + 45 \degree \\ \\ (2x - 2 - x) \degree = 45 \degree \\ \\ (x - 2) \degree = 45 \degree \\ \\ (x - 2) = 45 \\ \\ x = 45 + 2 \\ \\ x = 47 \\ \\ (2x - 2) \degree = (2 \times 47 - 2)\degree \\ \\ (2x - 2) \degree = (94 - 2)\degree \\ \\ (2x - 2) \degree = 92\degree \\ \\ measure \: of \: the \: exterior \: angle \\ = 92 \degree$
