Question

If m 24 is 53°, what is the m26?

Answer 1

Answer:

m∠8 = 49°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠7 and ∠8 are same-side interior angles.

Remember, same-side interior angles are supplementary. This means that the sum of the angles is 180°.

Let's use the variable 'x' to represent the unknown measure of angle ∠8.

$131 +x=180$

$131-131=0$ (cancels itself out)

$180-131=49$

$x=49$

Therefore, the measure of ∠8 is 49°.
